Women farmers make up around 43% of the agricultural labour force and produce over half of all food grown worldwide. Yet, when you picture a farmer, are they a woman? To mark International Women's Day we spoke to a panel of experts on the role biases and misconceptions play in preventing women farmers’ access to agricultural advisory services in different regions and cultural contexts around the world. The panel includes Kritika Khanna , Business Development and Communications Officer, CABI, Bethel Terefe , Gender Coordinator, CABI, Gabriela Rivadeneira , Agricultural Scientist in Bolivia and Kainat Panhwer, a Women Entrepreneur Facilitator in Pakistan. The discussion is moderated by Frances Williams , Global Monitoring and Evaluation Manager, CABI. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cabi-podcast/message…

Toadflaxes are typically found on roadsides, grasslands and in crop fields. Whilst these weeds may look pretty and provide decorative appeal, they soon escape cultivation and can cause some serious problems. CABI experts Dr Hariet Hinz and Dr Ivo Tosevski discuss the biocontrol options they are researching to control this noxious weed and in particular, how the use of snout beetles can considerably reduce the vigour of these invasive plants.
