"The New Colonialist Food Economy -How Bill Gates and agribusiness giants are throttling small farmers in Africa and the Global South," https://www.thenation.com/article/world/new-colonialist-food-economy/
“Africa is being recolonised: Seed sovereignty as a form of resistance How Kenyan farmers are reclaiming Indigenous practices from cultural colonialism" https://shado-mag.com/do/africa-is-being-recolonised-seed-sovereignty-as-a-form-of-resistance/
I currently cannot get the seeds I need for potential projects in 17 of 21 African countries. I want to work with my FAO science and technology friends and admire their expertise..
