“McKinsey [& Co] put out a report suggesting that up to 60% of all physical imputs to supply chains could be produced using biomanufacturing”
If true Agronomics has positioned itself perfectly, with substantial stakes in some of the biggest and most significant agri/food biotech companies in the world, including: Liberation Labs, Solar Foods, Blue Nalu, Meatly, Mosa Meat, Formo etc etc. Covering products from cotton and palm oil to hydrogen and dog food.
Anthony tells FoF that the UK is out of favour - that money is leaving the UK markets, particularly in small caps. Which explains 41 months of net outflows and a fall in share price.
Agronomics are doing all they can to reverse this and are beginning a campaign to educated and inform.

Senara is based in Germany and is the first company in Europe to produce cell cultivated Milk. It was founded 2 years ago and since then the cost per litre has reduced from €300,000 to €500. Svenja, the CEO and co founder tells me that they expect the price to reach parity following sufficient scale up and collaboration.
Cell cultivated milk may mean we’ll be trying cow free products such as chocolate and cheese before too long. In this latest Future of Foods Interview with Svenja Dannewitz Prosseda I find out how it’s made, the benefits and it’s place in the Future of Food.
Some estimates put cell cultivated milk at 5% of total dairy production by 2030.

CEO of Onego Bio Maija Itkonen talks to Alex Crisp from Future of Foods Interviews. Onego are a BioTech food company making egg proteins without chickens. The commercial demand for egg proteins account for a third of all eggs and demand is going up.
The cruelty experienced by egg producing chickens is no mystery to us and so Onego have provided a real solution to this problem.
Food manufacturers agree that getting egg proteins from tortured chickens is just not sustainable anymore. Onego wants to take the burden away from egg producers so that they can concentrate on producing better eggs for breakfast plates in better conditions for chickens.

‘Ultra Processed’ is a term frequently used. You may have heard it used to describe plant based foods or alternative proteins in a mostley derogatory way to imply that the food is of lesser quality or of lower health benefit to what is percieved as more natural food sources. So what is Ultra Processed Food? Is it just misunderstood. Why does it get a negative press?
