    Outside the southern part of Kivik's harbor in Skåne, Sweden's first non-profit marine allotment is bobbing in the water. "We don't need watering here," says Jan Nilsson, who is one of the driving forces behind it. An allotment that needs neither watering nor fertilizing. The blue food of the future.

    Due to overfishing, the populations of our most popular food fish are declining both globally and nationally. At the same time, there are many species in the ocean that we traditionally do not eat, but which have great potential to meet the growing need for food. At Tjärnö Marine Laboratory in Strömstad, a concept for small-scale and sustainable cultivation of new food from the sea is being tested.
