INITIATED– 2021


• food waste
• local food chain
• pig farming

We can reduce food waste and get sustainable meat in its place by reintroducing pigs into our food cycle. Pigs like to eat leftovers and can turn 3 kg of waste into 1 kg of meat. This works best with a local food chain and organic farming. In this proposal we want to show that it is possible to make animals part of the solution rather than a problem. Much can be learned by looking at past practices and combining them with current knowledge to arrive at new outcomes. The ultimate goal is to show transparency about the origin and destination of our food and the overall impact this has.

In collaboration with Jonas Gorgen.
