"You are what you eat" - the old saying is true not just for us as individuals, but also as society as a whole. Because "what you eat" can also refer to how the food we consume has been produced and ultimately landed on our plate. It tells a story about our relationship with nature - our ecological footprint and the resources we consume from farm to fork. New technologies have the potential to challenge and upgrade that relationship. Think automated crops equipped with sensor systems, connectivity and robotic swarms, vertical farming or lab-based meat, to mention just a few. Yet also the "You are" part receives increased attention, as the impact of food on our body, especially brain and genetic code, is understood better over time. We are able to add light and color to that story and improve it, with new technologies such as nutrigenetics or 3D-printed food. In this UTX episode, we provide a comprehensive look at the technologies which define the future of food and agriculture, which are not just changing us, but also our environmental footprint and the way we set ourselves up with other species on our planet and beyond.
