Innovating for a sustainable farming future

Farms. Food. Future.

This month’s edition of Farms.Food.Future. is all about innovation. Donal Brown talks about how IFAD is innovating in projects around the world. This month, we're also featuring some amazing game-changers in the industry. First we have Mai Ann Healy from BioFiltro, who's revolutionizing wastewater treatment with their innovative worm castings technology. And we talk to Shalom, CEO of Avenews, who's transforming the agriculture financing industry with their financial super app.

Two of IFAD’s Recipes for Change chefs join us. Pierre Thiam from Senegal tells us all about the West African superfood fonio. And Chef Juan Quintero, the Colombian culinary master, is showing us how to cut down on food waste in the kitchen and source ingredients from environmentally friendly producers. Plus updates on our climate change series from Bangladesh and we’ll be talking Green Ants.

This is Farms.Food.Future – a podcast that's Good for You, Good for the Planet and Good for Farmers brought to you by the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
