What an interesting thought and concept if we pose the question around what would we do in space - it takes away a lot of constraints and leads to big changes and big thinking especially in relation to sustainability @evokeAG @UniMelb @SciMelb

[NorVicFoods @FoodsVic]

We can learn more about a business looking in their bins versus their books. What an interesting take on sustainability @evokeAG @UniMelb

[NorVicFoods @FoodsVic]

What a thought provoking morning so far @evokeAG. Imagine if we started paying for nutrients/nutrition per hectare not just tonnes?? Interesting thought

[NorVicFoods @FoodsVic]
