Klara Fischer on why "Technology is not scale-neutral"

In our discussion with Klara Fischer (associate professor in rural development at Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences), we discuss how different smallholders in sub-Saharan Africa adopt and adapt different technologies, why new crop technologies are not scale-neutral, lessons to be learned from the Asian green revolution, and why it&amp;aposs important to work in interdisciplinary teams and be aware of the boundaries of our own knowledge.

From October-December 2024, Fuel to Fork is taking over Feed: a food systems podcast.  Fossil fuels are the lifeblood of our food system. This 7-episode series exposes their hidden role in the food we eat– revealing how food accounts for 15% of global fossil fuel use. If we want to tackle climate change, we can't leave food off the plate. Fuel to Fork is a collaboration between <a href="https://tabledebates.org/">TABLE</a>, <a href="https://ipes-food.org/">IPES-Food</a>, and the <a href="https://futureoffood.org/">Global Alliance for the Future of Food</a>. Feed, a project of TABLE, is in conversation with diverse experts who are trying to transform the food system. TABLE is a collaboration between the University of Oxford, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Wageningen University in the Netherlands, National Autonomous University of Mexico and University of the Andes in Colombia. This podcast is operated by SLU.  For more info, visit https://tabledebates.org/podcast/
