How This Disease Could Wipe Out Citrus...Unless We Stop It

As the climate crisis threatens our food supplies, already marginalized communities will be among the first to feel the effects of dwindling nutritious food. Hungry Planet showcases people's work on understanding the science of the food on our plates and how scientists and communities are working to keep it there for future generations.

How This Disease Could Wipe Out Citrus...Unless We Stop It

Citrus trees are threatened by a devastating disease called Huanglongbing. In this episode of Hungry Planet, Niba visits Southern California, where she learns what UC Riverside researchers are doing to stop it.
