Million-dollar Food Planet Prize awarded to CSIRO innovation
FutureFeed, a livestock feed made from seaweed that reduces methane emissions in beef and dairy cattle by more than 80 per cent has been awarded the world’s largest monetary reward on the global food arena.
The Food Planet Prize recognises initiatives, organisations and individuals working to secure the world´s food supply while fostering a healthy and resilient biosphere.
Awarded by the Curt Bergfors Foundation, 2020 marks the launch of The Food Planet Prize; four awards, each including US $1 million, for efforts to reshape the food system.
To be impactful and to contribute to a sustainable and resilient food system, the solutions must be implementable reasonably fast and on a large, preferably global, scale.
