Innovation from the Field

In this podcast series, we interview the innovators, scientists, and business and non-profit entrepreneurs who are reimagining agribusiness and food supply, and working to transform our world.

Join your host, Briony Mathieson, in this carefully curated collection of adventures and insights, as each 10-minute episode travels the world, exploring places through the eyes of the people who know first-hand what it takes to not only innovate but enable and empower change. We visit places like dry riverbeds in Senegal that have been newly brought to life with heat-tolerant wheat; an Indonesian national park around which coffee farmers are being encouraged to use sustainable practices; and smallholder farms in Ethiopia where a modeling tool is cracking the code on applying best practices.
