Dans le cadre de notre semaine spéciale de replay [À la table du monde], (re)écoutez l'épisode [#17 - Fousseyni Djikine : la culture africaine comme Leitmotiv (restaurant BMK, Paris-Bamoko)].Pour cet épisode, Fanny Giansetto reçoit Fousseyni Djikine. D'origine malienne, Fousseyni est le fondateur de Paris-Bamako, le premier restaurant proposant une cuisine africaine labellisé Ecotable. Retour sur le parcours fascinant de Fousseyni. Au sein d'une double culture franco-africaine, ses parents l'ont poussé vers des études brillantes. Puis, ayant pris conscience que sa culture était trop peu valorisée et méconnue en France, il quitte un post confortable de consultant pour la cuisine. À travers celle-ci, il cherche à déjouer les clichés et mettre en avant la richesse du patrimoine malin, et plus largement africain. Aujourd'hui, il est à la tête de deux établissements à Paris et il a mis en place une démarche de compensation carbone via la plantation d'arbres fruitiers avec les paysans de Gabou, la terre natale de son père.

The Roadless Rule is a U.S. Forest Service regulation that protects inventoried roadless areas from certain timber activities and construction within the national forest system, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The rule has been in effect since 2001, but U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins announced recently the Trump administration plans to rescind the rule. We learn more about how the regulation affects Oregon and its forests from Travis Joseph, the president and CEO of the American Forest Resource Council, and Steve Pedery, the conservation director of Oregon Wild

Dans le cadre de notre semaine spéciale de replay [À la table du monde], (re)écoutez l'épisode [#72 - La cuisine japonaise en question, par Ryoko Sekiguchi].Les Français sont les plus gros consommateurs de sushis en Europe : 22 % en mangent au moins une fois par mois et plus de 1 500 restaurants japonais sont recensés dans le pays. Mais que cette cuisine reste largement méconnue ! Elle véhicule par ailleurs certains clichés : ce serait une cuisine peu accessible financièrement et techniquement. Elle serait saine, respectueuse des matières premières, mais pas forcément à la pointe des enjeux écologiques. En tout cas, elle ne l'est pas en France, avec l'usage important de poissons, pas toujours sourcés, l'utilisation des emballages ou de certains additifs alimentaires. Pour questionner la cuisine japonaise, Fanny Giansetto reçoit Ryoko Sekiguchi. Ryoko est autrice, poétesse, traductrice et journaliste japonaise. Elle écrit sur les cultures culinaires, et dirige la collection Banquet des éditions Picquier. Elle a aussi été la rédactrice en chef du hors-série du magazine Tempura sur « Manger le Japon ». Vivant entre Paris et Tokyo, elle écrit sur une pluralité de cuisines, son dernier livre « 961 heures à Beyrouth (et 321 plats qui les accompagnent) » portant sur la culture culinaire libanaise.Ses conseils?- Le flacon « curry japonais » des Epices Roellinger qu'elle a créé pour mettre du Japon dans tous vos plats ! - La lecture du livre "Les herbes sauvages" du chef Nakahigashi à Kyoto (ed.

As President Trump cracks down in the fields on immigration, and an ICE raid in California left one farmworker dead, US Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says there will be no amnesty for the undocumented. But who will replace those agriculture workers? “Able bodied” Medicaid recipients, according to Rollins. The experiment was tried before. It didn't work.

In this episode, Jeff and Becky speak with Dr. Steve Pernal, research scientist with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, about his team's recent work monitoring Varroa destructor populations and treatment efficacy across Canada. As varroa continues to be the leading driver of colony mortality, Steve and his colleagues are collecting long-term data on mite levels, reinfestation rates, and treatment performance across a wide range of beekeeping operations. Steve shares insights from national monitoring efforts, including surprising findings on how quickly mites can rebound after treatment and the complexities of interpreting mite counts in commercial yards. The conversation covers regional differences in resistance development, what's known (and unknown) about reinfestation, and why simply applying treatments may no longer be enough to manage mites sustainably. This episode offers a grounded, research-informed look at varroa management—what's working, where the gaps are, and what Canadian researchers are doing to equip beekeepers with better tools and knowledge. Whether you run a few hives or a thousand, you'll walk away with fresh insights on what to watch for in your own operation.

Frm Congressman, Author of the ADAHappy ADA 35Tony Coelho has spent his entire adult life helping advance the lives of people with disabilities. He calls this his “ministry”. Congressman Steny Hoyer, former House Majority Leader, says that the disability community call him their “voice” and “champion.”Diagnosed with epilepsy when he was 22 years old, Tony's ministry is marked by significant milestones: primary author and sponsor of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) — the most important piece of civil rights legislation in the last 40 years; advocating for the ratification of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities; and convincing President Bill Clinton to establish the Office of Disability Employment Policy at the U.S. Department of Labor.  Tony continued to advocate for civil rights for individuals with disabilities by convincing President Barack Obama to issue an executive order enforcing Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requiring federal contractors and subcontractors to hire people with disabilities as they have been doing since 1973 for women and minorities.  He went on to work with the Biden White House to improve access to the internet for individuals who are blind, deaf, and physically impaired.Tony is a former six-term United States Congressman from California, elected in 1978 and serving until 1989. He served on the Agriculture, Interior, Veterans Affairs, and Administration Committees during his tenure, specializing in disability rights. In 1986, Tony was elected House Majority Whip, the third most powerful position in the House of Representatives.After leaving Congress, Tony joined Wertheim Schroder & Company, Inc., an investment-banking firm in New York, where he served as a Managing Director and then as President and CEO of Wertheim Schroder Investment Services, a firm that he grew from $400 million to $4 billion in managed investments. He formed ETC w/TCI, an education and training technology company in Washington, D.C., where he served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Episode 182 with Sam Davies, CEO and Co-Founder of Flux, a pioneering climate-tech company based in Nairobi that's scaling Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) to remove carbon from the atmosphere and restore Africa's soils. A former British Army reconnaissance officer, Sam transitioned from military leadership to climate entrepreneurship, driven by a personal vision to contribute meaningfully during the climate crisis.After discovering carbon removal while producing the documentary Legion 44 in Kenya, Sam founded Flux to unlock Africa's immense potential for ERW, a natural process that sequesters CO₂ while improving crop yields and regenerating farmland. Under his leadership, Flux has formed key partnerships with governments like Nigeria's, launched pilot projects across multiple countries, and committed to removing one billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere.In this episode, Sam explores the science behind ERW, the social impact of regenerative agriculture on smallholder farmers, and how Flux is building one of the most promising carbon removal platforms on the continent. He also unpacks the urgent need for credible carbon credits and policy innovation and why Africa is the next frontier for scalable climate solutions.What We Discuss With SamWhy Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) is one of the most promising, and underutilised pathways for permanent CO₂ removal at scale.How Flux's ERW model not only captures carbon but also regenerates depleted soils, improves crop yields, and enhances farmer livelihoods across AfricaFlux's strategic partnerships with governments, including Nigeria's, and the role of policy and public-sector collaboration in unlocking climate solutions.The structure behind Flux's carbon credits, including measurement protocols and global certification standards for permanence and integrity.The long-term vision to capture one billion tonnes of CO₂Verto CornerIn this week's Verto Corner, George Antoniades, Product Manager at Verto, explores the future of cross-border payments through the lens of stablecoins. Are they just another fintech fad or a transformative tool for global commerce?

Connue pour ses épices et ses couleurs, 73% des Français disent l'apprécier, quand bien même sa consommation au restaurant reste occasionnelle. Derrière l'emblématique couscous, longtemps considéré comme le plat préféré des Français, se cachent d'autres spécialités tout aussi goûtues mais plus méconnues comme la soupe harira, le tajine au poisson, la pastilla, les msemens, le zaalouk ou encore les briouates. Cette cuisine est souvent imaginée autour d'un élément central qui est la viande ou le poisson, accompagné de légumes d'été.Mais qu'en est-il réellement ? Quelle est la place des protéines animales, de la saisonnalité? Comment décrire cette cuisine haute en couleurs et extrêmement variée ?Pour questionner cette cuisine, la comprendre sur tous ses aspects, notamment écoresponsable, Fanny Giansetto reçoit Tarek et Leïla Idrissi.

This week is all about the history of salt! Yes, salt. You've probably never given it much thought. It sits in a salt shaker on your kitchen counter, spice rack, or cabinet. You can buy a pound of it for 76 cents at Walmart right now. But, believe it or not, salt was once an extremely valuable commodity. Whole civilizations rose up over salt. Trade routes were established. People became very wealthy. Salt allowed for the preservation of food which allowed humans to travel over long distances. It has invaluable medicinal properties. And, at it's most basic level, salt keeps humans bodies alive. Salt has impacted human history arguably more than any other substance on Earth.

Longtime friend of the show William Lea returns to the Talk Dirt to Me studio for his third appearance, and this one's a banger. We dive deep into the state of modern agriculture. Why it feels like farming is on life support, and what it's really going to take for American farmers to become profitable again. We break down the harsh realities growers are facing in 2025, the ugly truth about margins, and how the next wave of successful farmers will be those willing to adapt or die. We also unpack the new federal payment program being floated to help farmers recover from the brutal financial hits of 2023 and 2024. Will it be enough, or is it just another drop in the bucket? Plus, in our Made in America segment, we spotlight a Southern staple: Bryan Foods, a company with deep roots in American meat production. This is an episode for every farmer feeling the pressure, and for anyone who wants to understand what it really takes to survive in ag right now. Agzaga is the official sponsor of Talk Dirt to Me!

In this episode, we're joined by Brad Crammond — a farmer near Austin, Manitoba, with a unique background as a former agronomist and retailer. Brad brings a well-rounded perspective on KWS Hybrid Rye, sharing firsthand insights from the field and from the advisory side of the business. From Agronomist to Full-Time Farmer Brad kicks things off by reflecting on what initially drew him to rye, and how his first experience with hybrid rye was a game-changer — delivering a 30 bushel per acre yield boost that caught his attention and changed the way he viewed the crop's potential. Going All-In on Hybrid Rye We explore why Brad has now committed fully to hybrid rye. It's not just about yield — Brad explains how agronomics, harvest timing, weed suppression, and marketing flexibility all factored into his decision to expand acres. Regrets and Resilience Brad shares a moment of hindsight after last fall's rye harvest, where he wished he had kept more acres. We dig into what stood out about that crop — from winter survivability to spring vigor and overall crop resilience. Advice from a Farmer & Agronomist To wrap things up, Brad offers practical, farmer-to-farmer advice for anyone still on the fence about trying hybrid rye. Drawing from both his hands-on experience and years of crop advising, he highlights what to consider when evaluating this crop for your farm. Whether you're new to rye or looking to push your yields higher, this episode is packed with field-proven insight and actionable advice. Tune in now to hear Brad's full story and why he believes hybrid rye has earned a permanent place in his crop rotation. Thanks for tuning, Tracy

I'm starting this new series on Inventions that Changed Women's Lives at the very beginning—so early that it predates written history. In this episode, I dive into the origins of agriculture and ask the (possibly) surprising question: Was it actually a bad idea? For many women, life as a hunter-gatherer may have been easier, freer, and more equal than what came after. But it's true that sources are sketchy, hindsight is 20/20, and even women in patriarchal societies tend to like things like public infrastructure, writing, monumental architecture, and food surpluses, all of which come after agriculture. Civilization as we know it is a mixed bag. Visit the website (herhalfofhistory.com) for sources, transcripts, and pictures. This show survives on the support of listeners like you.

Shane Stevens, Natural Resource Program coordinator for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia and Greene Counties, is our featured guest in this episode.. Shane is also Regional Director of the Master Forest Owners Program of the Catskills and the Lower Hudson. The topic is the Master Forest Owner (MFO) program. Begun in 1991, the program is a collaboration of Cornell Cooperative Extension with the US Department of Agriculture, the New York Forest Owners Association (NYFOA), and others. The purpose is to create and train a network of volunteers to help private forest owners to be better stewards of their own properties. Fourteen million acres of New York State woodlands, approximately 75% of the total state's wooded acreage, are in private hands, Cornell and others want to enable individual landowners to tend their lands responsibly. Education and access to expert and experienced resources are the best means to this goal. The benefits of knowledgeable management of privately owned woodlands include more reliable clean air and water, maintainable harvests and use of timber resources, and accessible recreational resources. The MFO program is set up to train property owners who are interested in the long term maintenance of their forest resources. Members are valued for their experience, enthusiasm, and willingness to share their expertise. There are no required minimal experience levels, and the “forest ownership” need not be large acreage. A few acres and a passion for the forest is enough, combined with a willingness to share their expertise with the public. Training has gone hybrid, and is mostly Zoom sessions, with a final in-person field day at the conclusion of training. For most counties in the Hudson Valley, this takes place at the Siuslaw Model Forest, in Acra (Greene County). Students get the chance to meet in person and bond while exploring, among other things, the teaching forest's deer exclosure test area and the shiitake mushroom growing yard. There are no required volunteer hours, but each trainee is encouraged to conduct forest visits as requested by landowners. The requests for a 'woods walk' are usually submitted online, with a questionnaire providing details about the landowners' interests and goals for their woodlands. Initial forest visits are done with an experienced MFO, but the volunteer can proceed on his or her own once he/she feels confident. The actual visit can cover a range of topics including questions about the overall health of the trees in the forest, management of invasive species, creating habitat for birds and wildlife, deer management, agroforestry, silviculture, and/or options for forest regeneration. On average, a MFO volunteer does 1-3 visits a year. Additional information or referrals are usually sent to the landowner after the visit depending on the landowner's interests. Direct referrals to individuals are not done, but lists of approved practitioners in the appropriate fields can be provided. NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has a cooperating foresters list, and mywoodlot.com and Forest Connect have rich websites. Forest Connect even has an excellent YouTube channel. There is a wide array of resources available to learn how to steward a forest. A Woods Walk with a Master Forest Owner volunteer is a great place to start.

The Republicans are investigating President Joe Biden's use of the autopen while in office. Although many presidents have used the autopen in the past, President Trump and others have expressed concerns about Biden's cognitive abilities and his awareness of the actions his administration was taking during his term. The former president defends his own use of the autopen, telling the New York Times that he always authorized its use. Marc Thiessen, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush, provides insight into the ongoing investigation. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has proposed a federal ban on Chinese nationals and other foreign adversaries from purchasing American farmland. Agriculture Secretary Rollins called this a major national issue and said concerns still remain over the food processing plants and farms already acquired by the Chinese, which are situated near U.S. military bases. Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen joins the Rundown to discuss security threats posed by China's economic influence and why he believes Americans should reject Chinese-made products and support domestic goods instead.
