Even though the Netherlands has been an agricultural superpower for generations, the industry requires change. To reinvent our food system, we need each other. We need farmer families able to adapt to new times. Because no farmer can change the landscape on their own. Inventors, architects, marketers, civil servants, chefs, artists, lawyers and designers, they can all play supporting roles in creating futureproof farming. As ‘relatives’, they look for feasible, logical and sustainable improvements. They find each other via De Nieuwe Boerenfamilie [The New Farmer's Family], a platform that drives innovation in Dutch agriculture by stimulating collaboration between farmers and committed non-farmers. After all, food belongs to us all.
