Spacefarming

The future of food

Next Nature presents the 'Spacefarming: the future of food' at the Evoluon. This exhibition explores how we can grow our food differently in the future, or even on other planets.

Welcome to the world of the space farmer

The number of people on Earth is growing fast: there will be nearly 10 billion of us by 2050. More food will be needed than we can produce today. Where will this food come from? And how will it be made? A burger made from cultured meat, milk from a robotic cow, or potatoes from space. It may sound far away, but farmers, scientists, entrepreneurs, artists and designers are already developing new foods and innovative ways to turn this into reality. This exhibition takes you to the future of food and agriculture.
