For this episode, two academics discuss educating a new generation in sustainable agriculture. 

Xiochi Ma, also known as Max, is a graduate student at Washington State University researching efficient irrigation systems for grapevine cultivation in drought-ridden areas. Krista Jacobsen is an agroecologist and professor at University of Kentucky focusing her work on nutrient cycling and soil fertility. For these guests, the university setting is an important one for sparking young people's dedication and passion for sustainable practices no matter what their major course of study might be.
