You're about to listen to a BBC podcast and I'd like to tell you a bit about the

podcast I work on. I'm Dan Clark and I commissioned factual podcasts at the BBC.

It's a massive area but I'd sum it up as stories to help us make sense of the forces shaping the world.

What podcasting does is give us the space and the time to take brilliant BBC journalism

and tell amazing compelling stories that really get behind the headlines.

And what I get really excited about is when we find a way of drawing you into a subject

you might not even have thought you were interested in.

Whether it's investigations, science, tech, politics, culture, true crime, the environment,

you can always discover more with a podcast on BBC Sounds.

Hello, Dan Solidino here.

This is one of those episodes where we explore the very big picture of food.

In fact, it doesn't get much bigger. This is all about the

don't worry keep listening. This is also a program with lots of

ambitious and radical solutions.

This week, one of the biggest food questions of all, can the world transform how it grows,

produces, processes, distributes and consumes food?

We need to ask the question, because all the signs are telling us the current

approach isn't working. Global food systems are broken and billions of people

are paying the price.
