30 Sep 2019 --- As sustainable production technologies are becoming increasingly important in the global food sector, UK businesses can now apply for a share of up to £20 million (US$24.6 million) from the UK government’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund Transforming Food Production Challenge. This competition fund is set to invest in large-scale projects developing new and efficient low-emission food production systems. By addressing technological and other bottlenecks holding back state-of-the art systems from supplying consumers, the competition aims to drive the UK’s food production model away from its land-based traditions and towards a more sustainable position of net-zero emissions.
