Send me a messageIn this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I'm joined by Gary Loh, CEO of DiMuto, who brings a refreshing perspective on fixing the fractured agri-food trade. Gary's insights shine a light on the 30% of food wasted globally and how digital tools like AI, IoT, and blockchain can help us reduce that figure.We discuss why traditional silos, where growers, packers, shippers, and retailers rarely share data, need to be broken down. Gary explains how DiMuto's approach aligns economic incentives for everyone in the supply chain, driving transparency and reducing food waste. He also delves into how real-time data is empowering smallholder farmers, opening up access to trade financing and reducing costly claims.We also touch on the impact of US tariffs, shifting climate conditions, and FSMA 204 compliance, and why digital transformation is no longer optional. Gary's journey from finance to agriculture shows that real change comes when you address the incentives and give farmers and buyers the tools to see the full picture.If you're serious about building a transparent, resilient supply chain, or just curious how aligning incentives, AI and data can cut waste in our global food system, this episode is worth a listen.Elevate your brand with the ‘Sustainable Supply Chain' podcast, the voice of supply chain sustainability.Last year, this podcast's episodes were downloaded over 113,000 times by senior supply chain executives around the world.Become a sponsor.

Jim Toman is a Senior MES Advisor at Grantek. Jim has 30+ years of experience creating data driven systems for manufacturers.   In this bonus episode, the discussion centers around the upcoming Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Rule 204 enforcement. FSMA falls under the authority of the United Stated Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The changes coming with FSMA 204 will go into effect and become enforceable in January 2026, at that point food manufacturers who sell product in the United States must be in compliance with these updated regulations. FSMA Rule 204 requires planning, budgeting and engaging with suppliers as well as end customers since quality data has to be transmitted downstream through each step in the supply chain.   The Industry 4.0 Podcast with Grantek delivers a look into the world of manufacturing, with a focus on stories and trends that lead to better solutions.   Our guests will share tips and outcomes that will help improve your productivity. You will hear from leading providers of Industrial Control System hardware and software, Grantek experts and leaders at best-in-class industry associations that serve Life Sciences and Food & Beverage manufactures.

Speedy and efficient traceability systems are vital for compliance, consumer health, and resilience in the food safety industry. Andy Kennedy, Principal Traceability Advisor at New Era Partners, joins us to unravel the complexities of food safety in the supply chain. With 17 years of experience creating SAS food traceability businesses, Andy offers insights into the historical context of traceability regulations, the significance of technological progress, and how innovation will continue to shape our approach to food safety. He candidly describes the tension-filled environment of managing a food safety outbreak and the critical role of coordination during these investigations.

Lindsay Klaunig (she/her) is the farmer and owner of Trouvaille Farm in Athens, Ohio. She raises grass-fed beef and goats on pasture, heirloom crops on the ridge tops, and makes artisan chocolate and other treats in their farm kitchen. She is also a seed producer, growing heirloom vegetable seeds that are sold through small regional seed companies. Previously, Lindsay worked as a specialty cheesemaker on a small-scale dairy farm in the early days of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). It was during this time that Lindsay experienced a federal site inspection.In this episode, Lindsay is interviewed by her longtime friend Isabel. The two discuss how food safety enforcement has changed over the years, specifically describing what the situation was like before FSMA and how FSMA changed things in many ways for the better. Lindsay opens up about the FDA audit that she went through, sharing powerful tips for balancing out the power dynamic with regulators and offering wise insights about how and why communication and relationship building have been critical to her resilience.As Linday says to Isabel, “growing food is the most important thing you could do for a living, but if you're paying attention you'll also see that it's fraught, it's risky, and opens you up to a world of divisive opinions, clashes in values, and constantly changing rules and changing guidance from the regulators…” and yet she keeps choosing to do it, as perhaps you keeping choosing to do as well. You will walk away from this episode with a refreshed perspective on food safety risk management, and a healthy reminder that your risk tolerance evolves right along with you.Farm Commons is grateful to have collaborated with Lindsay as a member of the 2023 Collaborative Learning Fellowship.A full transcript of the episode will be available soon.

Récemment encore, le gouverneur de la Banque nationale, qui est censé donc être la plus haute autorité financière du pays, a reconnu que les banques belges avaient encore une marge de manœuvre pour augmenter le rendement des comptes d'épargne. Les quelques chroniques que j'ai pu consacrer aux banques belges ont parfois suscité des réactions négatives, souvent, pour estimer que les banques offrent des services encore plus lamentables que l'administration et ne méritent pas donc les propos nuancés que j'ai pu tenir à certains moments. Récemment, j'expliquais que le succès du bon État auprès des épargnants belges avait un prix et ce prix serait payé d'une manière ou d'une autre par les épargnants. Et pour appuyer cette démonstration, et celle des observateurs avisés, j'ai pointé du doigt le fait qu'il y a quelques jours à peine, la banque KBC avait décidé d'augmenter ses frais bancaires, ce qui montrait bien, selon moi, que nous étions donc dans une histoire du type arroseur arrosé. Les banques belges ont dû se résoudre à augmenter le rendement de leurs comptes d'épargne suite à la pression du ministre des Finances, sous peine de voir encore une partie de leurs épargnes partir vers un deuxième bon état. Elles se rattrapent donc sur les frais bancaires. Ce problème des frais bancaires ne joue pas seulement pour les comptes d'épargne, il joue aussi négativement sur les produits de placement. Mots-Clés : auditeur, mauvais coup, bon d'État, hausse, frais bancaires, arguments, association, Febelfin, lobby, Belgique, pays, étude, SPF Economie, administration, compte, inflation, Fsma, gendarme financier, belge, fonds, moyenne, hommes politiques, scoop, rémunération, comptes d'épargne. --- La chronique économique d'Amid Faljaoui, tous les jours à 8h30 et à 17h30.

In this weeks episode of The Produce Industry Podcast w/ Patrick Kelly we chat with Liz Sertl of GS1 US. If you don't know about GS1 US......Well they are a global supply chain standards organization with over 2.5 million user companies that generate over 10 billion transactions daily using our standards. Some of the most common standards you may be familiar with is the Global Trade Item Number, the UPC barcode, the GS1 128 barcode (this is what growers/packers use when shipping cases of product) and the Global Location Number among others. Today, we here from Liz Sertl the Senior Director, Community Engagement, at GS1 US, the not-for-profit information standards organization, and has more than 20 years of experience in the CPG industry. Liz facilitates collaboration best practices and guidelines that help companies improve product traceability and supply chain visibility through the adoption of GS1 Standards. She also spent more than a decade with Anheuser-Busch in e-business solutions and packaging, where she spearheaded the company's adoption of GS1 Standards for improved supply chain efficiency and trading partner relationships.    GS1 US oversees businesses in the United States, we are not-for-profit, industry driven and a neutral organization. This status provides industry a safe harbor and un-competitive common ground to come together and discuss supply chain and regulatory issues that they need to solve for the betterment of the entire industry. One major issue that industry is working to solve now is making sure all stakeholders in the supply chain can become compliant with the FSMA 204 final rule that was published last November by the FDA. Impacted businesses have until January of 2026 to be compliant so the industry is working hard to make sure all parties know what they should be doing now. TUNE IN AND TUNE ON!!
