It was a really interesting look at how different agricultural systems around the world compare and what that brings into teaching. 🍎   A big part of the conversation focused on education. What students are learning, how university farms are used for research and teaching, and why creating space to test ideas matters. We also spoke about international collaboration, particularly in China, and how bringing students and ideas together improves learning on both sides. 🌍 We also touched on research, innovation and where agriculture is heading, especially around sustainability, food systems and resilience. Enjoy! 🙂 Hosted on Acast.
