Vincent Ricciardi on Challenging Assumptions
from Feed: a food systems podcast · host TABLEdebates.org
In our discussion, data scientist Vincent "Vinny" Ricciardi challenges the assumptions and evidence that are built into food systems debates. We talk about a few of the recent papers that Vinny co-authored, including one that asks how much of the world’s food supply is produced by smallholder farmers, a 50-year meta-analysis that compares how do small and large farms size up in terms of yields and biodiversity impact, and whether smallholders actually have access to broadband to become part of a data driven farming future.For more info and the episode transcript, please visit https://tabledebates.org/podcast-episode10
