About this listen

In this sharp and thought-provoking episode of Battle for African Agriculture, Dr. Million Belay is joined by Dr. Michael Hansen—Senior Scientist at Consumer Reports and globally respected authority on genetic engineering and food safety. Drawing on over two decades of work in policy advocacy and international regulation, Dr. Hansen breaks down the science and politics behind genetic modification, highlighting the risks of GMOs, pesticide reliance, and the corporate control of seeds. He explains how the global push for industrial agriculture—under the guise of innovation—is eroding biodiversity, endangering food safety, and undermining seed sovereignty, particularly in the Global South.
