Food produced in Finland is clean, and you can certainly taste it. The excellent quality of our food is based on the well-being of animals, high-quality standards, and modern agricultural technology that supports both of these. When we talk about raising
Speaker A
livestock, the animals are at the heart of it all. We in Finland value our animals, and high-quality requirements combined with efficient control and new technology guarantee that Finnish food is safe and clean and that its origin
Speaker A
can be traced. Today, almost every farm possesses automation that helps them achieve efficiency as well as better living conditions for the animals than ever before. In a similar fashion, cleanliness, effective feeding systems, and good indoor air improve the comfort
Speaker A
of the workers and save time. Furthermore, innovations like biogas plants enable farms to produce clean energy for their own use or to sell to others. Biogas plants produce bioenergy, heat, electricity, and fuel. When we are talking about farm-size biogas plants, it has only
Speaker A
environmental benefits, such as reduced odor from a pub and reduced nutrient loss from a field. A biogas plant is carbon neutral as well. Finland is well known for its high technology and IoT solutions. Digitalization and smart solutions are
Speaker A
already commonplace, and more and more people believe in the power of smart farming both in cow sheds and fields. The potential of the industrial Internet is best revealed in energy solutions and in maximizing efficiency. Likewise, applications made possible by sensor
Speaker A
technology can be easily introduced from other sectors to cow sheds. We have the healthiest pig population in Europe. Confidence in the work we do, successful supervision, and effective breeding programs have brought us to the current situation in which antibiotics, for
Speaker A
example, are used to a lesser extent than elsewhere within the European Union. Animal health in Finland is on a very high level. Our genetics is healthy genetics. Also, this country has a very efficient disease prevention program in place. Again, needs to be able to focus on
Speaker A
genetics, so we rely on our trusted partners. We need top-quality feeds for our breeding animals and also feeding systems and equipment, and for equipment that are technologically up to date. We are at the forefront of this development, and we also want to stay there, set an
Speaker A
example, and offer consumers a production chain that is open, sustainable, and clean because you can taste it. [Music]
