The Official Podcast for Kansas Wheat
Hosted by Aaron Harries
In this powerful episode of Wheat’s On Your Mind, Peter Laudeman of U.S. Wheat Associates and Justin Gilpin of Kansas Wheat take listeners on a firsthand journey through East and Southern Africa, where U.S.-grown wheat becomes a lifeline for hundreds of thousands.
From witnessing heartbreaking ration cuts at the Kakuma refugee camp near the South Sudan border to observing port logistics in Mombasa, they share stories that illuminate the vital role American wheat plays in global food aid.
Their reflections are both emotional and eye-opening, connecting Kansas farmers to the faces and lives their wheat feeds across the world.
