Last week I visited the largest rice millers in Ghana, to see our fortification project in action. Cereals fortified with minerals and a selection of vitamins remains one of the most cost effective ways to deal with micronutrient deficiency. With thanks to @wfp.org and @rockefellerfdn.bsky.social

Loved @jennifer-clapp.bsky.social's book on the history of Big Ag. I wish I could have read it at the start of my career. Don't be put off by the cover there's loads about our contemporary food system too, and to quote Pearl S Buck 'If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday' 📚💙
