State of Seed
On State of Seed, launching July 12th, you’ll find out how seeds feed and sustain the planet. Though more than half of what we eat comes from seeds, most of us know very little about them—and how the sector contributes to our world and the future of food security. In this four-part series, host Laura Rosbrow-Telem talks to the innovative players advancing this vital resource, including leaders of multinational companies and NGOs, U.N. and government officials, entrepreneurs, national seed associations, scientists, and, of course, farmers. Plus, you’ll hear about the key concerns keeping them up at night. State of Seed is brought to you by the International Seed Federation, with production services from FP Studios. Listen to the trailer below. If you like what you hear, you can “subscribe” above on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
