GermiNation E4S1: "The past, the present, and the future of feeding the world one seed at a time."
In this episode of GermiNation, we take you inside the 2025 World Food Prize Borlaug Dialogue — where innovation, legacy, and global collaboration take center stage. I sit down with three inspiring voices in agriculture: Dr. Manjit Misra, former Director of the ISU Seed Science Center and USDA’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture; Julie Borlaug, President of the Borlaug Foundation, granddaughter of Nobel Laureate Dr. Norman Borlaug and passionate proponent of initiatives to end hunger; and we’ll wrap up with Dr. Jean Baptiste Tignegre, Regional Seed Systems Lead for the African Agricultural Technology Foundation.
Together, they share insights on the past, the present, and the future of feeding the world: from the Green Revolution to the next generation of “Hunger Fighters."
