Episode 13: Diving into Ag History with Malcolm

Welcome back y’all! On today’s episode I sit down with Malcolm Peavy, PhD student in both the Snyder and Moore Labs in the Department of Entomology at the University of Georgia.

Talking points include the struggles that led Malcolm to be a non-traditional student, The history of agriculture in the US, doing field work as a black man, why teal is a great color, and sustainable agriculture.
