In this episode of the Foreign Area Officer Podcast, I interview Julie Tully and her husband U.S. Navy CAPT(R) John Tulley. We discuss Julie's transition from a cowgirl in Northern California to a 'nomadic Navy spouse' and the dynamic journey from her career in agriculture to becoming a Foreign Area Officer (FAO) spouse, living and working in Europe and Africa for fifteen consecutive years. The conversation delves into the couple's experiences living in Cameroon, Nigeria, and Djibouti and the impact of their roles there. They touch on memorable challenges, the importance of self-reliance, and the significant contributions spouses make to the FAO mission. Julie also shares the inspiration and stories behind her book, 'Dispatches from the Cowgirl,' offering a deeper look into the FAO lifestyle and its challenges and rewards.   Learn More about Julie's work at www.JulieTullyWriter.com   Books Discussed: Dispatches of a Cowgirl, by Julie Tully Broadway in Benghazi, by Anna Linvill Out of Africa, by Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen)   00:00 Introduction and Disclaimers 00:45 Meet the Guests: John and Julie Tulley 01:19 Julie's Journey: From Cowgirl to Navy Spouse 03:37 Life on the Ranch and Transition to FAO 04:55 The FAO Lifestyle: Challenges and Adaptations 14:11 John's Naval Academy and Submarine Experience 19:16 Discovering the FAO Career Path 22:07 Julie's Perspective: Public Relations and FAO Life 25:46 Adventures and Challenges in Africa 34:16 The Importance of Teamwork in FAO Assignments 43:10 A Hospital Emergency Room in Nigeria 57:04 The Commissary Conundrum 59:10 Internet Surprises in Nigeria 59:47 Defining Home Across Continents 01:09:18 Experiencing Local Cultures Through Staff 01:34:19 Honoring a Fallen Hero in Djibouti 01:49:14 Reflections on the FAO Life

Collective action can take many forms – cooperatives, for example. But for the millions of youth engaged in agrifood systems, sometimes Instagram or TikTok is more effective.Of the 1.3 billion people aged 15 to 24, 44 per cent rely on agrifood systems for employment. But their unique challenges are not always represented, and their voices are not always heard. This is why collective action is so important. A recent report on youth in agrifood systems went further than just encouraging collective action – it actually consulted youth stakeholders in the editing of the report, as Lauren Phillips, a deputy director at the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), told UN News's Naima Sawaya – as the UN's top political forum on sustainable development continues. 

Resumo: O mundo caminha para abrigar 11 bilhões de pessoas até o fim do século. Mas como alimentar essa população sem esgotar os recursos do planeta? Neste episódio, exploramos o paradoxo alimentar do século XXI: nunca produzimos tanto, e nunca tantos passaram fome. A jornada atravessa mercados superlotados, fazendas verticais, desertos convertidos em celeiros e lições ancestrais que a história insiste em repetir. Uma narrativa imersiva sobre escolhas, tecnologia, desperdício, e a urgência de reinventar o sistema alimentar global. Criação e Produção: Episódio escrito, narrado, gravado e editado por Waldir Franzini, em produção independente, no estilo raiz.

La pomme de terre est le produit de la terre le plus consommé par l'humanité – en dehors des céréales – et classée pilier de la sécurité alimentaire mondiale. Récit d'une conquête planétaire partie d'Amérique du Sud. (Rediffusion du 20/10/2024) C'est l'histoire d'une success story planétaire. La pomme de terre, ou la patate, est aujourd'hui, hormis les céréales – le riz ou le blé –, le produit de la terre le plus consommé sur Terre. « Tout le monde aime la pomme de terre ! », souligne la journaliste Marie-Laure Fréchet, qui lui a consacré un ouvrage, Le Grand livre des patates (éditions Flammarion). Solanum tuberosum n'a pratiquement que des avantages, à tel point que l'agence des Nations unies pour l'agriculture et l'alimentation (FAO) considère la pomme de terre comme un pilier de la sécurité alimentaire mondiale.« Quand on maîtrise sa culture, c'est très productif, peu onéreux. On peut la produire sous différents climats. C'est une culture relativement facile, qui se conserve, et ça aussi, c'est important, relève Marie-Laure Fréchet. C'est une source de glucide, un féculent, indispensable à l'alimentation. On mange moins de pain, mais on mange un peu plus de pomme de terre. » La patate n'est pas une pomme Chaque année, 375 millions de tonnes de patates sont cultivées dans quelque 150 pays. Mais cela n'a pas toujours été le cas pour une plante domestiquée dans les Andes, en Amérique du Sud, il y a approximativement 12 000 ans. Les conquistadors espagnols la ramènent en Europe au XVIe siècle, comme la tomate, de la même famille que la patate. Mais elle a du mal à s'imposer. « Contrairement au cacao, par exemple, à d'autres produits exotiques qui ont pu être ramenés, on ne sait pas trop quoi faire de la pomme de terre, raconte Marie-Laure Fréchet. On lui trouve toutes sortes de défauts. Bien moins savoureuse qu'aujourd'hui, elle était sans doute assez amère. Et surtout, on se méfiait de ce qui venait de la terre. On ne savait pas trop ce que c'était et c'est pour ça qu'on l'a appelée pomme de terre. Mais la pomme de terre n'est pas une pomme, elle n'est pas un fruit. » La patate, en effet, ne pousse pas dans les arbres, mais bien dans la terre ; c'est un tubercule, et du point de vue de la botanique, c'est bien un légume. La conquête mondiale de la pomme de terre commence par l'Espagne donc, l'Europe du Sud, mais aussi l'Allemagne : « Il y a même eu un édit d'un empereur de Prusse pour obliger les Allemands à cultiver chacun un petit lopin de pomme de terre. » Mais en France, pendant longtemps, la patate nourrissait seulement les cochons. Frites françaises La France, depuis, s'est rattrapée : elle est le premier pays exportateur au monde, et aussi le troisième pays d'Europe en termes de consommation, derrière l'Allemagne et la Pologne. Et c'est à Paris qu'on a inventé les frites, il y a plus de 200 ans. « La frite a fait beaucoup pour la promotion de la pomme de terre, parce qu'elle sublime son goût », estime Marie-Laure Fréchet, Grande Huile de la Confrérie de la frite fraîche maison. « Dans la région des Hauts-de-France, on est en train d'implanter de nombreuses usines de frites pour exporter des frites surgelées en Chine et en Inde. » La Chine, par sa taille, est devenue le premier producteur mondial de pomme de terre. En Afrique, la patate, qui demande quatre fois moins d'eau que la culture du riz, a réellement pris son essor ces 30 dernières années, et elle est aujourd'hui la quatrième culture vivrière. Partout dans le monde, la patate donne la frite, la pêche, la banane, ou... la patate. La question de la semaine

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news the world is working out how live with a capricious America.First though, the week ahead will feature Wednesday afternoon's OCR review from the RBNZ, preceded Tuesday by the RBA's cash rate review. The Aussies are expected to cut their rate by -25 bps to 3.60% but the RBNZ is expected to hold at 3.25%. We will be covering the outcomes and implications of both reviews.Both Malaysia and South Korea will also be reviewing their official rates. The Malaysian will likely leave their rate unchanged at 3.00%, and the South Koreans are expected to cut theirs by -25 bps to 2.25%.In the US, apparently negotiating trade deals is complicated (who knew?) so Trump is dispensing with all that and just "sending letters" unilaterally. "90 deals in 90 days" is too hard for him. He might have got one over the line with Vietnam (he claims but the Vietnamese haven't confirmed). He sort of got one with the UK but before the 90 day clock started. And the China one he claims leaves the US in a worse position. His Treasury Secretary is promising "a few more" over the next few days and weeks. "Best deal maker of all time".And we should probably note that the integrity of official US data, from the Census Bureau, the BLS and the BEA, all now under Trump control (in the Lutnick Commerce Department), is getting increasingly questioned. Sharp budget cutbacks is resulting in fewer actual surveys, more 'estimates by officials'. Even Fed boss Powell expressed concern over the issue in questioning at the recent Congressional testimony. The data reporters are moving to a "Make Trump Look Good" approach.Suspicion is rising because there are widespread indications tariff-tax price increases are being pushed through but the BLS data isn't reflecting that.In China we will get CPI and PPI updates for June later this week. It would be supremely ironic if users came to view Chinese economic data was more trustworthy than American. It no longer seems far-fetched.Across the Pacific in Japan, household spending jumped +4.7% in May from a year ago, reversing a -0.1% fall in April and far exceeding an expected +1.2% rise. It was their fastest growth since August 2022, and that August 2022 was only good because it was off the very weak pandemic-affected base a year earlier.Singaporean retail sales rose by +1.4% in May from a year ago, accelerating from a downwardly revised +0.2% rise in April. This was the third straight month of growth and the fastest annual increase since January. But to be fair, most of the increase was driven by car sales, a very expensive and exclusive corner of their retail sector.Next, halfway around the world, EU producer prices eased again in May so that it is only +0.4% higher than year ago levels, less in the euro area. The past three months have delivered producer prices lower than in each of the prior months.German factory orders dropped by -1.4% in May from April and that was weaker than expected, but the April gain was revised higher. The May weakness however came after some very large-scale computer, electronic and optical orders in April. From a year ago, these factory orders were up +5.3%.And we should probably note that EU house prices are rising, up +5.7% from a year ago led by 10%-plus gains in Portugal (+16%), Bulgaria (+15%), Croatia (+13%), Slovakia (+12%), Hungary (+12%), and Spain (+12%).In Australia, household spending rose in May and by more than expected with a good recovery from a weak month in April. This spending was up +4.2% from May a year ago. It was their best gain in 7 months.The FAO food price index was little-changed in June from May, holding its gains from a year ago. Within that, both meat and dairy prices rose.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.33%, and unchanged from yesterday. The price of gold will start today at US$3,336/oz, and unchanged from Saturday.American oil prices are unchanged at just under US$66.50/bbl while the international Brent price is also little-changed at just under US$68.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now just on 60.6 USc, unchanged from Saturday. For the week it is up +20 bps. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 92.5 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at 51.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 68 and up +10 bps from yesterday, and unchanged for the week.The bitcoin price starts today at US$108,921 and up +1.0% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been low at just on +/-0.5%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayokupeleka nchini Uganda katika Mbuga ya Wanyama inayofahamika kwa jina Murchison Falls National Park kuangazia namna washiriki wa Kongamano la kimataifa la lugha ya Kiswahili lililofanyika mapema mwaka huu jijini Kampala walivyofurahia mazigira asili nchini Uganda na namna yanavyounufaisha ulimwengu.Mkutano wa 4 wa ufadhili kwa maendeleo umemalizika leo huko Sevilla, Hispania ambapo mashirika ya kiraia yametaka utekelezaji kwa vitendo kwa yale yaliyomo katika nyaraka iliyopitishwa iliyopatiwa jina Makubaliano ya Sevilla.Mmoja wa wawakilishi wa mashirika ya kiraia, Paula Sevilla amesema kinachohitajika ni uongozi kutoka nchi tajiri ambako ndiko zilizko kampuni kubwa zinazokwepa kodi.Ripoti mpya iliyotolewa leo na shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Chakula na Kilimo, FAO kuhusu vijana na mifumo ya uzalishaij chakula na kilimo inaonesha kuwa karibu asilimia 85 ya vijana duniani wanaishi katika nchi za kipato cha chini na cha kati, ambako mifumo hiyo ni muhimu kwa ajira na maisha yao. Ripoti inasema kuwajumuisha vyema vijana katika mifumo hiyo kunaweza kuleta mchango wa hadi trilioni moja ya dola kwa uchumi wa dunia..Na mwezi uliopita wa Juni umeshuhudia ongezeko kubwa la familia za raia wa Afghanistan zikirejeshwa nyumbani kutoka Iran, tofauti na awali ambapo waliokuwa wakirejeshwa walikuwa ni wanaume peke yao.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili leo mchabuzi wetu Onni Sigalla, Mhariri Mwandamizi kutoka Baraza la Kiswahili la Taifa, BAKITA nchini Tanzania, anachambua neno KUTOHOA.Mwenyeji wako ni Assumpta Massoi, karibu!

When young South Sudanese have guns, which they do, and are raiding other people's cattle and produce for their livelihood, which they are, how do you get them to lay down their guns? The answer is an alternative form of income, another livelihood.  And the path to income is cooperatives according to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).Cooperatives, economic organizations in which work and risk are shared by members, are forming in more and more corners of South Sudan.  They are an acknowledgement that it is easier to surmount livelihood challenges, specifically food insecurity and climate crises, together as a community as opposed to alone as individuals.  But they may be more than just a path towards economic empowerment, they may also bring peace and security to the world's youngest nation.  Ahead of the International Day of Cooperatives, which is marked annually on 5 July, UN News' Naima Sawaya sat down with FAO's Louis Bagare, who's based in South Sudan, and began by asking him to explain what role cooperatives play there.

Même éloignées de nous, les régions polaires nous concernent tous. Un seul exemple : début 2025, la banque internationale de Svalbard annonçait avoir reçu plus de semences que jamais en 2024. De quoi s'agit-il ? Svalbard est un archipel, le plus septentrional de la Norvège, à 1300 km au nord du cercle polaire arctique, son île la plus connue est l'ile du Spitzberg. Là, dans une ancienne mine de charbon a été créée en 2008 la réserve mondiale de semences du Svalbard, une chambre forte souterraine, qui conserve à – 18° en permanence un échantillon des graines de toutes les cultures vivrières de la planète afin de préserver la diversité génétique de notre terre. Une sorte d'arche de Noé de la biodiversité en quelque sorte. Alors que la FAO estime que les 3/4 des variétés de légumes domestiques ont été perdues depuis les années 1990 à cause de la monoculture, les banques de semences tentent d'empêcher que d'autres variétés soient perdues à jamais, notamment du fait des évolutions climatiques. Ainsi, sur l'année 2024, la chambre forte mondiale du Svalbard a reçu 65 000 échantillons de semences, un record. Il existe certes des banques nationales ou régionales de semences mais la toundra arctique offre un climat idéal et sûr pour le stockage, c'est une sorte de sauvegarde supplémentaire pour toutes leurs collections et une garantie pour notre futur. Aussi plongeons-nous, un peu, dans ces océans glacés. Sont-ils vraiment des objets géopolitiques, c'est-à-dire des territoires au cœur de rivalités de puissance ? Qu'est ce qui les rend si attractifs ? Quelle est ici l'incidence des effets du dérèglement climatique ?

Le parole di papa Leone XIV alla Fao sono un forte richiamo a Israele, che pure continua a bombardare anche le aree cosiddette sicure della Striscia di Gaza, uccidere giornalisti e sparare alle persone in coda per il cibo. Prosegue la seconda forte ondata di calore nel sud dell'Europa, con punte di 46°C in Spagna e 42°C in Francia. In Italia, tornano forti precipitazioni che causano esondazioni e anche un morto a Bardonecchia. Si è appena chiuso il festival di Glastonbury, uno dei più importanti al mondo, e l'anno prossimo rimarrà fermo un anno per motivi ambientali e sociali.

La Tertulia de los Lunes con Martín Bueno, Casilda Echevarría, Miguel Fernández Galeano y Teresa Herrera. *** El canciller Mario Lubetkin informó el viernes que el gobierno gestiona la llegada a Uruguay de un pequeño grupo de jóvenes palestinos provenientes de Cisjordania para formarse aquí en agricultura sostenible. Según dijo Lubetkin en diálogo con Subrayado, esta posibilidad se concretaría a través de un programa de cooperación financiado por Dinamarca e implementado por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación (FAO), que tiene como objetivo capacitar a jóvenes palestinos en el desarrollo de startups relacionadas con la agricultura sostenible, un sector clave para la región. “Hemos estudiado una cantidad de proyectos que tiene Naciones Unidas en la zona de Cisjordania, porque hoy Gaza está totalmente paralizada. Hay un proyecto que lo financian las autoridades danesas y lo ejecuta la FAO en relación a la formación de muchachos en el área agrícola para la creación de microempresas. A nosotros nos pareció una idea estupenda. A nosotros nos da las garantías plenas y de seguridad para poder traer algunos muchachos, cuatro o cinco, no sé, veremos. Por ahora a lo que llegamos es a hacer un acuerdo de sumarnos a un esfuerzo de otros”. Lubetkin justificó la medida como una forma de complementar con soluciones de largo plazo la ayuda humanitaria inmediata, a la que Uruguay planea sumarse, según dijo la semana pasada el presidente Yamandú Orsi. El Canciller enfatizó que la situación en Gaza es dramática, pero también destacó la gravedad de la crisis que vive la población de Cisjordania. ¿Cómo evalúan los tertulianos esta posibilidad? ¿Qué señal da el gobierno con esta iniciativa?

Le foreste occupano circa un terzo di tutte le terre emerse. Sono verdissime, piene di vita e soprattutto ci aiutano a respirare e a ridurre l'anidride carbonica nell'atmosfera, la principale responsabile dell'effetto serra. Ma quanto sono davvero grandi le foreste e quanto carbonio hanno intrappolato? Per scoprirlo l'ESA ha da poco portato in orbita un nuovo satellite, per studiare le foreste come non abbiamo mai fatto prima. Prima di scoprire qualcosa sui bruchi collezionisti di ossa, ci occupiamo del burro cacao, tra miti e screpolate leggende, e di come una fetta di formaggio ha salvato molte vite. Sul Post Biomass, per misurare il carbonio delle foreste  L'ESA svela il set di dati più ampio di sempre sulla biomassa forestale  I documenti della FAO sulle foreste  Ruolo e importanza delle foreste  La scienza dei cosmetici.
