Feeding a population of >9 billion by 2050 is a global challenge. How can innovation help us overcome future resource scarcity? Bugs, plant-based “meat” and fish farming on land are some of the most fashionable (food) ideas for saving our planet. And it looks promising. Aquaculture is today the fastest growing food sector globally, solving plenty of problems but also posing challenges both in the waters and in transportation. Large-scale production on land, however, allows for farming fish right next to the end customer and might be commercially viable and reach critical volumes already by 2020. Is this one of the solutions we should be counting on or should we look elsewhere?
