  • Rethinking rice-based agriculture in Assam.
  • And China, maybe?
  • By breeding your way out of the problem, maybe?
  • And then patenting the result? Well, maybe not.
  • Here comes fair-trade quinoa.
  • Nordic cheeses to go with those insects from a few days back. Lack of Norwegian representation pointed out, as well as a remedy.
  • I wonder how many Italian cheeses are made from the milk of endangered breeds. Well, now the relevant association has a Facebook page, so I can ask them.
