💻 WEBINAR ON-DEMAND | How Farming Systems Impact Bionutrients

Add to Calendar Wed, 17 Nov 2021 13:00:00 -0800 Wed, 17 Nov 2021 13:00:00 -0800 💻 WEBINAR ON-DEMAND | How Farming Systems Impact Bionutrients

How plants are grown can have an immense effect on nutritional content. A healthy, high functioning soil will produce crops that are flavorful, aromatic, and nutritious. Studies have reflected this by showing that organic production can result in higher antioxidant levels. However, nutrition is still not well understood, and the actual nutrient levels in  crops can vary dramatically with farmer, season, and seed. This webinar will discuss what we know – and don’t know – when it comes to crop nutrition and highlight new technology and campaigns to better understand how to maximize the nutrition of our food.

Esteemed Panelists: Dan Kittredge, Executive Director | Bionutrient Food Association Sara Newmark, Chief Operating Officer | True Grace Health Tina Owens, Senior Director, Food & Agriculture Impact | Danone North America Jessica Shade, PhD, Director of Science Programs | The Organic Center (Discussion Leader) Andrew Smith, PhD Chief Operating Officer | Rodale Institute
