The pandemic, war in Ukraine and climate change have all affected global food security. We look at possible solutions and why supporting small hold farmers could be key.

The new president of the United Nations International Fund for Agricultural Development, Alvaro Lario tells us why the pandemic, war in Ukraine and climate change have created a perfect storm for global food security and what can be done about that.

The 成人快手鈥檚 Frey Lindsay hears from people around the world who are dealing with the food crisis. Alvaro Lario explains how food shortages often begin with smallholder farmers.
