Fake videos, misinformation about food, agriculture and health are flooding social media, racking up followers despite lacking any scientific basis. Community Notes should help curb the spread of misinformation.

Interesting times ahead. Wonder how this will affect food quality, health sectors as well as global trade. Will there be any regulations? #USAElection2024 #FDA

Herbalife products have been linked to health risks, especially severe liver injury. Although Herbalife disputes these claims, be careful. lifehackerguy.com/is-herbalife-bโ€ฆ nutritionfacts.org/video/herbalifโ€ฆ

Eat like this 90% of the time, and youโ€™re guaranteed to face health issues in the long run. If you need guidance, consult a professionalโ€”your health is worth it

Just woke up from the earthquake. Very unsettling, especially when you live in a high-rise building in #AddisAbaba . You start wondering about the structural stability of buildings around and how prepared the city is for such moments.

This isn't complicated to understand. Elon Musk's Starlink was denied a license in South Africa and so he's been on a revenge campaign to get them to reverse their decision. Our foreign policy is now just billionaire business tactics. What a heartbreaking corruption.

Roots of hunger lie in lack of purchasing power and allocation within markets from direct economic loss and the lack of lobbying power to secure it. That lobbying power falls on actors with influence to make sure we secure cross-border aid access into Sudan and North Darfur.

As access to seeds of climate smart soybean varieties is a critical constraint, SOPRI project is employing different strategies to enhance availability & access to seeds of recently released improved varieties. As a result, seed production under irrigated system was initiated.
