Special Episode 2: 60 Yrs of Coffee Development in Ethiopia - A Personal Reflection

Season 1 · Episode 2

Sunday, May 31, 2020 • Duration 37:19

A single article written in March 1962 on a magazine prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture FSA triggered my reflection. Reading the article and the situation of then and compare it to the now, I just had to ask where we have been as Ethiopians. Our governments and coffee system since the 1950s have clearly failed to transfer the coffee sector. The problems presented then and today by the sector remain the same, i.e. productivity, quality, and logistics. If the problems are the same, then, it is not that difficult to conclude that our investments to date have been irrelevant at best or counterproductive at worst. Regardless, we might as well start fresh if we can't figure out what is best for our coffee sector and our smallholder farmers in two generations. Our government and our coffee professionals need to ask this question now and reflect on a new direction. Thank you and much love from Addis ❣️

Special Episode 1 - COVID-19, GMOs, and Coffee 😊 an Ethiopian perspective

Season 1

Sunday, May 10, 2020 • Duration 33:15

I reflect on current issues in Ethiopia, i.e. COVID-19, GMOs, and coffee, and their interconnectedness and where I fit in an a person. It is my hope that people appreciate our progress in technology including biotechnology and feel empathy for each other as we are in the same boat with COVID-19. If it wasn't for biotechnology, the backbone technology behind GMOs, it would have been next to impossible to have a scalable diagnostic test for COVID-19. We also wouldn't have a safe and mass production of insulin for management of diabetics. Last but not least, we won't be able to respond quickly to the challenge climate change presents to the viability of the coffee plant and the many organisms that may go extinct. I hope you enjoy it and would love to hear your bless you wishes as I had a good sneeze at the end of the show. Btw, it's not Coronavirus yet and thank you for listening!! Much love from Addis ❣️

Episode 3a: The Essence of Ethiopian Coffees - The Nature (1 of 3)

Season 1 · Episode 3

Wednesday, May 6, 2020 • Duration 21:06

This is a three segment series of Episode 3a. It presents coffee as a natural heritage of Ethiopians along with its value as an educational platform is explored. Ethiopia is considered the place of origin for both Coffea arabica and modern humans. Thus, as beautiful as the Kaldi's the goat herder story is in discovering coffee, it doesn't quite capture the essence of Ethiopian Coffees. An alternative story that makes our natural heritage and ingenuity of past Ethiopians as innovators in agriculture needs to be told. Enjoy and much love from Addis ❣️
