Welcome back to the EURACTIV agrifood podcast! After a short break, EURACTIV's agrifood team are back and this week discussing all things food security, including the deepening cracks in the Commission over its response to the Ukraine war and the missing Green Deal target in MEPs report on organic farming. We also speak with crop scientist and analyst Sarah Taber, who explains why the panic over food security in light of the war is the real risk to global food systems and how countries can compensate for the lost agri-trade with Russia and Ukraine.
Around the world, countries are feeling the effects of the ‘triple shock' caused by the Ukraine war – the perfect storm of economic, energy and food risks. A looming food crisis could have devastating consequences globally, exacerbating inequality and further slowing the recovery from the pandemic. In this episode, we take a step back to understand what's really going on here. How is the war impacting global prices, supply chains and markets? What countries are most at risk? And how should governments respond? Speakers: Sara Pantuliano, Chief Executive, ODI; Sarah Taber, crop scientist; Sherillyn Raga, Research Fellow, ODI; Steve Wiggins, Principal Research Fellow, ODI.

In today's episode Nicky P and Ben discuss some old tweets they came across from our long time foil, Dr. Sarah Taber, enlightening people on the truth about ugly produce. If you've been anywhere on the internet the past few years you've undoubtedly been inundated with advertisements for different company's offering to help save the ugly produce from ruin. While we don't always see eye to eye with Taber she's a wealth of knowledge on this topic and actually made us better capitalists going through her explanations.

Sarah Taber is a crop scientist and ex-farmworker with a wide knowledge of agricultural history and practice, which you can hear in action on her excellently-named podcast Farm to Taber. In this conversation, we talk about the role of the “farmer” in the American imagination and survey some of the most critical moments in the development of American food and farming policy.
Fascinating new episode of Living30 podcast with Dr. Sarah Taber. The first half is very agriculture heavy, where we talk about breaking the good ol' boys club of farming, social media, and millennials' connection with their food. The second half is more focused on Dr. Taber realizing around age 30 that she wanted to leave the Mormon church, why 30 is the age that people gain independence, and how it all connects to her mission in the world of agriculture. Click here for the episode or check it out on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you like to listen. Dr. Sarah Taber is a crop and food safety scientist with a PhD in plant medicine from the University of Florida. She's worked on farms and labs, is the founder of a caviar company Persephone, and she podcasts on Farm to Taber. Her favorite challenges are designing robust human systems; training financial backers in physical and human capital; and reminding the industry that blockchain can’t stop food fraud, because both parties in fraudulent food transactions are usually in on it anyway.

Does landownership matter in agriculture? Turns out it does! Crop scientist and podcaster ("Farm to Taber") Sarah Taber is on the program to talk about how landownership drives power dynamics, creates inefficient classes of exploitative family farms, while destroying the environment. Showcasing approaches and technologies that deliver more productive and more sustainable results, from labor practices to alternate forms of ownership and tenure.
Point of Inquiry co-host Kavin Senapathy has covered food and agriculture for years, and if she’s learned one thing, it’s that people’s views on farming are rife with misconceptions. The conversation around food is complex, and involves a slew of gray areas and mountains of data. Enter Dr. Sarah Taber. She’s the host of the Farm to Taber Podcast, a farm and food systems strategist, and one of Twitter’s most prolific and eye-opening agriculture myth-busters. Taber’s work has included food safety, regulatory compliance, crop care, and making work flows as efficient as possible in farms and facilities. On this episode, Kavin speaks with Dr. Taber on agriculture and the myth of the destruction of family farms. Part of this myth involves tackling whether big agribusiness destroyed these farms, and what sharecropping has to do with it. Topics also include how racism against various ethnicities displaced our country's farmworkers, what really separates family and corporate farming, and the current narrative around field automation.
u like food? u like eating that food? u want 2 know the real dill about ag? ;) WELL GIDDY UP! This week we have incredible crop scientist, Sarah Taber, on the ep! Check it out as she eviscerates any and all agricultural myths u may have in your brain! Theme music as always by Brandon Payton Carrillo Links for the people Broiler chicken farmers make way more money that anyone admits: https://www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves/2014/august/financial-risks-and-incomes-in-contract-broiler-production/ Farmers in general make more money than non-farming Americans & have since the mid-90s: https://www.ers.usda.gov/topics/farm-economy/farm-household-well-being/income-and-wealth-in-context/ (Translate: yes, working-class farmers exist, and they’re still a lot better off than their non-farming working class peers. Meanwhile white-collar farmers, who also exist, are doing quite well.) The USDA does a farm census every 10 years or so; the 1920 one gets referenced the most often bc it was the high-water mark for number of farmers in the US. (Which folks take to mean it’s “normal” except it wasn’t- farmer numbers were artificially inflated by super high food prices during World War I driving a lot of speculative investment & one last gasp of homesteading in places where there’s no way it could actually work. It’s how the Dust Bowl happened.) Anyway, check out how much sharecropping was happening in the Great Plains & Midwest. http://usda.mannlib.cornell.edu/usda/AgCensusImages/1920/Farm_Statistics_By_Color_and_Tenure.pdf A whole bunch of farmers talking about how the “thank a farmer” grandstanding is toxic & just exacerbates ag culture’s worst tendencies: https://www.porkbusiness.com/article/kate-miller-i-will-not-thank-farmer https://futureofag.com/why-i-dont-promote-thank-a-farmer-rhetoric-bee1378c490a https://www.achieveag.com.au/single-post/2017/04/30/Dont-thank-a-farmer https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/sask-farmer-thank-a-farmer-nonsense-1.4945273 https://www.agweb.com/top-producer/article/perspective_a_declaration_of_interdependence-john-phipps/
The ugly fruit and veggies movement urges you to save the world by eating one ugly carrot at a time. Dr. Sarah Taber works in the food industry and she pointed out that most of ugly fruit and vegetables get turned into sauces and soups. So what's really going on? Why are we being told to eat ugly produce? We also drink and discuss Mocha Porter by Dirtbag Ales and That's What I'm Talkin' About, Rolled Oat Stout, by Pearl Street Brewery. Dr. Sarah also recommends this book to learn more about the complexity of food production.

This week, we’re going back to basics, and ignoring cities to talk about farms.Dr Sarah Taber is a North Carolina-based crop scientist who recently went viral. In a lengthy thread posted to Twitter, she explained why civilisations in different parts of the world developed entirely different diets: the short version is that wet regions developed low-meat diets, while dry regions developed high-meat diets. She went on to explain why cows are a useful source of food in those dryer regions, and also how much water you’d need to farm them.Being me, I found all this fascinating, so I invited her to talk to me about it, down an occasionally dodgy Skype connection from a Chicago hotel room. She promised to explain “crops, soil and cows” – but also managed to cover the history of American farming, and the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, too. Makes a change from trains, doesn’t it?Skylines is the podcast from the New Statesman’s cities site, CityMetric. It’s hosted by Jonn Elledge.

Dr. Sarah Taber began crop consulting in 2006. Her work since then has focused on regulatory compliance (including food safety), IPM, crop care, and making work flows as efficient as possible in farms and facilities. Through ongoing work as a food safety auditor, Dr. Taber has developed an expert “inspector’s eye” for potential issues in a facility or blueprint before they cause problems during operation. Dr. Taber has also enjoyed serving as Director of Food Safety for the Aquaponics Association since 2013. This role has led to some extraordinary opportunities– being on the front line of an emerging market, cutting-edge research, and policy development for the aquaponics industry. When not working with clients or developing aquaponics-friendly agricultural policy, Sarah Taber enjoys spending time with her family and contributing to the inevitable heat death of the universe at the gym.

Plants are easy to take care of. If you feed them the right things and give them the right amount of water, they absolutely will grow and thrive. People, and by extension businesses, can be more tricky. Agricultural consultant Sarah Taber (and host of Farm to Taber!) is great with plants, but she's also learning how to be great with people too. She talks to Kyle about why freelancing means paying attention to your clients and working with their emotional investments (even if you'd rather be doing anything else).

Looking back on her childhood, Sarah Taber remembers that “my identity was problematic because of moving from country to country and the overall atmosphere of growing up in the CIA.” As an adult she wrote about what it was like to be raised in a culture of “secrecy, stoicism and silence” in her book Born Under an Assumed Name: The Memoir of a Cold War Spy’s Daughter. Feel the stresses and learn the secrets of a CIA family in this heart-to-heart talk between Sarah and Peter, himself a CIA father.
