In this episode of the Contested Ground podcast, hosts Steve Kuper and Liam Garman speak with Agsecure’s Andrew Henderson as they unpack the recently released US food security strategy.

The trio unpack the details underpinning the pivot in American thinking resulting in the development of the food security strategy.

They also discuss the key priorities and focus areas identified in the food security strategy, ranging from concerns around biosecurity, foreign ownership of agricultural land through to supply chain bottlenecks and constraints for key inputs.

The trio also unpack the lessons for Australia as we begin our own national conversation about our food security and the challenges we face despite exporting 70 per cent of our annual agricultural produce.
