The most effective and equitable agroecological approach needs to have many voices represented when shaping agricultural policy and agendas.
Researchers need to ensure they include alternative voices, knowledge and experiences

My blog for the Global Food and Environment Institute at the University of Leeds has just been published! I discuss some of the opportunities for AI in food production, as well as reflecting on the risks involved.
New blog: 'AI in food production: How much should we worry about big tech?' by @martinp556.bsky.social, PhD researcher.

A key focus of agroecological practice is understanding ecosystem functions.
Researchers are studying how plant-level treatments, field-level crop compositions & landscape-scale structures & vegetation interact to influence crop pest & disease risks.

Throughout October, we are spotlighting some of the ways our researchers are supporting agroecological transitions in Africa.
Agroecology enhances food production resilience to extreme weather events & pest infestations, and improves biodiversity, soil health & nutritional properties of foods.

GFEI spotlight: Dashiell Anderson is a PhD student in Economics at the Leeds University Business School.
His research focuses on why rural workers tend to earn less than urban workers, with a particular focus on the US and UK labour markets.

Can we achieve food security and at the same time reduce greenhouse gas emissions? This thorny question is the subject of my PhD research at the University of Leeds. The first step: trialling new data and modelling tools like satellites and machine learning. I look forward to sharing some results!
