Join experts from ANSTO and industry to explore how nuclear science is securing our food future.
Food is vital for our health and wellbeing, but food fraud is a growing global issue. From false labelling to product substitution, fraud costs the global food industry an estimated $40–50 billion USD each year. Even worse, unsafe or contaminated food makes 1.6 millionpeople sick every day.
Today, consumers and regulators expect clear proof of origin. However, traditional methods such as paper-based documentation, genetic testing and chemical profiling can be incomplete, leaving exporters, retailers and consumers exposed to risk.
Join leading experts from ANSTO, government and industry as they unpack the science and technology tackling food fraud and explore how innovation is helping ensure safety, traceability and trust in the global food system.
