Keeping Farming Real

In this month’s programme we look at one of the most pressing issues facing farming today – that of youth and what’s being done to offer interesting and viable options for life on the farm for young people in developing countries .

We have highlights from IFAD’s Advocate for Rural Youth Sherrie Silver and African pop star Mr Eazi - that’s from their recent interview on the BBC. Also we’ll look at how IFAD is standing out from the crowd when it comes to getting the job done of development in rural communities in developing countries. And we have news on solar powered cookers and the latest IFAD report on Latin America and the Caribbean.

This is Farm. Food. Future. – a podcast that’s Good for You, Good for the Planet and Good for Farmers brought to you by the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
