As the New Year starts we enter a time when old habits and ideas are often changed, and new and hopefully better ones are put in their place
In the world of milling perhaps this could be seen as an opportunity for new standards to be pursued in terms of feeding people, and new crops to enter the miller's world and new technologies to be developed to process them.
In the animal and fish feeding stuffs world, this process would afford an opportunity for developing countries, such as those supported by the Milling4Life charity, to make considerable progress in the planning of the provision of plentiful healthy and nutritious diets for their citizens.
As the world requirement for protein in particular, rises to meet population growth, many young lives will depend on getting these vital areas of nutrition right in future actions and long term planning. Pursuing the most efficient forms of animal production such as aquaculture will be key, and thus the feeding stuffs being created and their processing need to be fit for purpose.
Our Deputy Chairman Roger Gilbert has a lifetime experience of the feeding stuffs industry, including him fulfilling the role of an industry game changer and in him aiding the introduction of industry leading ideas and thinking. He has very clear views on the necessity and the importance of a well-developed feeding stuffs processing industry, right through to matters of national welfare, development and progress.
His data crunching and analysis of national progress of the world's countries, makes for impressive reading and more importantly yields vital conclusions on what is needed particularly in terms of feed output. I believe many young lives will depend upon his thinking becoming ''de rigeur" for developing countries planning and leadership.
Indeed, this conclusion was part of the background to me taking the important personal decision to agree to chair this charity and moves such as attending meetings at the Food and Agriculture Organisation in Rome with Roger, in discussions with senior figures.
