Farming expert grows knowledge in Africa

Liang checks the health of a mango tree in Guinea-Bissau. Liang's new method helps plants recover faster, sparking interest among local farmers. Each season, Liang's team provides 15 tons of rice seeds to local farmers for free and gives multimedia guides on topics such as planting techniques and tractor maintenance. "This reduced the country's reliance on FAO-provided seeds, easing food shortages and reducing hunger in rural areas," Liang said. Liang plans to select and cultivate fruit tree varieties suited to Malawi, establishing model orchards and training local farmers.
