On today's AgNet News Hour, Nick Papagni and Josh McGill dive into one of the most critical issues facing California agriculture: water. And at the heart of the conversation is Madera County farmer and water expert Matt Angell, who shares an eye-opening, data-rich analysis of groundwater, regulations, and the future of farming in the Central Valley. The episode begins with Nick reflecting on a sobering conversation he had with farmers the previous day, hard-working folks pouring 12 to 15 hours into pistachio and almond farms, only to lose money. The frustration and urgency are palpable, and that tone carries through the episode. Matt Angel returns for the second part of his in-depth interview, presenting a clear picture of the hydrologic chaos California farmers are facing. From declining groundwater levels and lack of real-time measurement, to flawed models and unqualified decision-makers, Angel lays out a compelling case for reform. His concept of "hydro regions" based on real data and pump testing is not just theoretical it's something he's actively proposing to the state. He describes how smaller family farms are being outmaneuvered by large management companies that can attend regulatory meetings while others are out in the fields. The result? Water policies that favor the few, and a regulatory environment that threatens the future of independent agriculture. Nick and Josh don't hold back. They call out the political inaction, misplaced priorities, and the growing disconnect between policymakers and the farming community. The show becomes a rallying cry, urging listeners to pay attention, support farmers, and push for representation of real experts like Matt Angell in California's water governance. If you care about food, water, or the future of agriculture, this is an episode you can't miss.

In this second compilation focused on emerging markets, we revisit conversations featuring three investors who are channeling substantial capital into regions where others hesitate to go – and they're doing it with discipline, innovation, and deep local insight.Each of these guests brings a different strategy and perspective, but all are working toward the same goal: building sustainable, scalable businesses that meet the needs of underserved communities.And they're doing it in ways that challenge the old assumptions: that impact comes at the expense of return, that emerging markets are too volatile to be investable, or that scalable solutions must come from the West.Here are the featured voices:Sandeep Farias, Founder and Managing Partner of Elevar EquityElevar backs what they call entrepreneurial households – more than 50 million families across emerging markets who've moved beyond the bottom of the pyramid. While they're making economic progress, they still lack access to the products and services that support their ambitions and daily lives.Sandeep and his team take a bottom-up, equity-focused approach to identify the “core solutions” these families prioritize – like education, healthcare, and agriculture – and invest in entrepreneurs building businesses to serve them.With five funds deployed across India and Latin America, Elevar stays close to both customers and founders, spending time in the field to understand how people live, what they value, and where capital can make the greatest difference.Full episode  Rochus Mommartz, the CEO of responsAbilityRochus leads responsAbility – one of the world's largest dedicated impact asset managers, with $5 billion under management and more than $15 billion deployed across emerging markets since inception.His team doesn't start with products. They start with problems – like the 500 million people in Africa who still lack electricity, or the small businesses across Asia and Latin America that can't get financing. Then they find the companies solving those problems and shape capital to support their growth.Rochus draws a clear line between real and perceived risk. Emerging markets aren't short on opportunity – they're just often misunderstood by investors who rely too much on spreadsheets and not enough on what's actually happening on the ground.Check out the full interview: Part 1Part 2Sugandhi Matta, Chief Impact Officer at ABC ImpactSugandhi helped launch ABC Impact with backing from Temasek and Temasek Trust – and helped shape it into the largest Pan-Asian private equity fund dedicated to impact.From the start, her focus has been on building a strategy rooted in Asia's realities – not imported from somewhere else. That meant starting with evidence: mapping the region's most urgent needs, identifying where scalable solutions could take hold, and designing an impact framework from the ground up.ABC now manages close to $1 billion across sectors like healthcare, financial inclusion, sustainable food, and climate resilience. They back mission-driven founders solving problems they've lived – and who have the resilience and discipline to scale.Full episode—Connect with SRI360°:Sign up for the free weekly email updateVisit the SRI360° PODCASTVisit the SRI360° WEBSITEFollow SRI360° on XFollow SRI360° on FACEBOOK

Ever wondered what happens when a childhood fascination becomes a thriving business? Meet Terri Faloney, the passionate force behind Hammer Hives, whose journey from curious novice to "bee whisperer" offers a masterclass in following your calling.Terri's story begins with loss and a farm that had lost its vitality. Looking to bring life back to her family property, she turned to honeybees after learning about their plight against pesticides and habitat loss. What started as an experiment to "reconnect with her inner child" quickly became an all-consuming passion. Despite losing her first colonies, Terri persevered, sought mentors, and developed expertise that now allows her to work confidently among thousands of bees without protective gear, a sight that leaves most visitors (and podcast hosts) amazed.The conversation dives deep into the fascinating world of beekeeping, from the 16-day development cycle of queen bees to the meticulous process of queen rearing that involves precise temperature control and careful handling. Terri shares insider knowledge about running double brood chambers versus singles, the threats facing honeybee populations today, and how her sustainable approach to beekeeping supports both bee health and business prosperity. Her Italian-Carniolan genetic line of docile bees, developed over generations in Ontario, allows her to work with bare hands in shorts and a tank top while surrounded by buzzing colonies.Beyond the technical aspects, Terri's approach reveals something profound about our relationship with nature. The "vibrational connection" she describes – being aware, gentle, and respectful when working with bees – creates harmony between keeper and hive. Whether you're a curious gardener tired of hand-pollinating cucumber plants or someone seeking a meaningful business that benefits the planet, Terri's journey shows how reconnecting with nature can become a sustainable passion that helps save our most important pollinators while building community. Ready to peek behind the veil and discover what all the buzz is about?

From building their manufacturing facility to conducting one of the most extensive clinical trials in over 25 years, their story isn't just about disrupting a category; it's about raising the standard for an entire industry. If you're a founder, parent, or just someone passionate about what modern CPG brands can stand for, this conversation is packed with inspiration and actionable wisdom. Here are a few highlights from our conversation: * Why building their manufacturing was a necessity, not a strategy * The science and transparency behind their patented, breast milk-inspired formula * How community, parent feedback, and clinical trials fueled meaningful innovation * What it takes to challenge 100 years of industry status quo * Why ByHeart believes the future of infant nutrition is about access, evidence, and trust Join me, Ramon Vela, in listening to the episode to learn how this team built one of the most important—and personal—brands in modern consumer health.

On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Aaron Yassin, founder of Hive Developers, to explore the intricacies of ground-up condo development in Brooklyn. Aaron shares a detailed breakdown of his latest 10-unit project in Bushwick, including how he sourced and assembled the property, navigated estate complexities, and leveraged zoning laws to maximize buildable square footage. He also highlights design-driven strategies that helped him presell 8 of the 10 units, emphasizing how thoughtful architectural and financial planning drove value and efficiency. The conversation dives deep into New York City zoning, due diligence pitfalls, and the creative ways developers can add value—like duplexing into below-grade space and avoiding costly elevator installs.
