The BBC World Service’s Ed Butler’s most recent audio report from his trip to Egypt is one about the country’s dependency on food imports for BBC’s Business Daily. He examines food shortage issues and, of course, has some koshari from Abu Tarek, which he calls “Egypt’s fish and chips.” Butler also hears from local hydroponics producers as well as food security expert Kimberly Flowers (who runs the Global Food Security Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies) about the challenges facing countries like Egypt (runtime 17:42).
