“Food & Feed” community

Produce better to consume better

The “Food & Feed” community mobilises the agri-food industry around a priority: to develop biomass for a safe, healthy and sustainable food.

The growing need for food on a global scale and consumers’ demand for quality are leading the agri-food chain to optimize resources, diversify products and reassess production methods. For the members of Bioeconomy For Change, the priority is to produce better to consume better.

B4C accompanies a multitude of organizations – producers, processors, innovators, citizens – who are inventing other means of production by consuming fewer resources and preferring resilient and sustainable systems.

B4C has created a unique ecosystem around cooperatives, industries, engineering and R&D laboratories, research and educational institutions.
