Episode notes

Hazel Peavoy of The Walton Institute joined Rob O'Connor in the virtual studio to provide an overview of some of the agri-tech projects that have been undertaken at SETU. These have massive potential impacts in terms of food quality and efficiency, as well as food security. Climate change is also a major theme of the research.

Please note at the time of recording, SETU was known as WIT so there may some references to that in the audio
