WA–to–Denmark Agriculture Symbiosis Study Tour
September 10–16, 2023
CSI was thrilled to host an ‘Agriculture Symbiosis’ Study Tour in Denmark for public and private leaders from Washington State September 10-16, 2023.
The delegation, including a bipartisan group of 9 state legislators, learned how Danes are advancing the principles of industrial symbiosis to benefit the economic value and competitiveness of the agriculture sector, and improve its sustainability performance, at the same time.
This Agriculture Symbiosis Study Tour builds upon the learnings in a report from WSU and CSI submitted in June that the 2022 Legislature requested to “develop recommendations for increasing the economic value and sustainability of Washington’s agriculture sector through the use of industrial symbiosis principles.”
The Study Tour further builds upon five years of industrial symbiosis knowledge exchanges between Washington and Denmark, and a strong track record of bipartisan accomplishment in the Washington Legislature.
The Study Tour was made possible thanks to generous support and assistance from
