Rice is a staple ingredient in every household kitchen; however, its convenience comes at a significant cost to our planet. Over 90% of the world’s rice is grown in Asia, where rice-paddy farmers heavily rely on toxic chemicals to combat pests. It’s time to address this widespread chemical dependence that is poisoning our land and food.
Join Belinda Sircombe-Jellett in conversation with regenerative farmer and environmentalist Tim Fijal as they explore his mission to transform agrochemical use into regenerative farming practices in Bali. They’ll discuss the Astungkara Way, a local-to-global movement founded by Tim to build healthier soils and ecosystems by reconnecting people with nature and the origins of their food.
