Food summit
World leaders are gathering in Rome to address the crisis of rising food prices. Making an appearance is President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, which faces 165,000% inflation. We speak the BBC’s XYC in Rome and with soil expert Pedro Sanchez from Columbia University who says one answer to the crisis might be the dirt under our feet.
