On September 22, the California League of Food Processors attended The Food Dialogues, an effort launched by the U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance to answer questions on how food is grown, raised and produced in the U.S. as well as to explore different viewpoints on the future of food. Sustainability, population growth, the need for innovation and research, science, food security, conservation/diminishing resources, conventional, organic and GMO-produced foods were some of the topics discussed among panelists and audience members. Four panels located throughout the U.S. (Fair Oaks, Ind.; Washington, DC, Davis, Calif. and New York) encompassed leaders and voices across the food chain. Among the distringuished panelists at UC Davis was Stuart Woolf, President, Woolf Farming and Processing.
