Inside the grain silo with Ambrook Research: Debates within U.S. farming communities

For the fifth part of our series on debates across the world, I zoomed into the conversations inside American farming communities with Jesse Hirsch, editor of Ambrook Research, a U.S.-based farming magazine whose readers are primarily farmers. Everyone from row crop farmers to sustainably-minded smallholders in Vermont. We explored the textured world of U.S. agriculture; from who farmers voted for to regenerative farmers who won’t use the words 'climate change'.

Making Nature Count: How should we value nature in our food systems?

Spatial distribution of fishmeal and fish oil factories around the globe

Journal articles

This study identified 506 fishmeal and fish oil factories in 63 different countries, providing an open source database with locations, company names and raw material types. Fishmeal and oil is a critical input for the aquaculture sector but there is little publicly available information despite many reports of unsustainable practices such as decimating fishing stocks in countries that rely on fish as an important source of nutrients.
