From Agrimagined to Agreality in Africa
Nature finds ways of directing resources to where they are needed most, but if your eyes are not tuned to see these processes, they get taken for granted.

His recent work has sought to take these lessons and use them to make agriculture work with these natural processes, rather than against them.
Ollier has been partnering with Joseph Kinuthia of Kenya through their organization Agrimagined since 2021 to find innovative ways to ...
