Who funded us? Did it influence our results? with Marion Nestle

In this episode of The Peter Byck Show, Peter sits down with well known critic of Big Ag research Marion Nestle, a beacon of scrutiny when it comes to keeping a sharp eye on food industry funded research.

Marion Nestle is Paulette Goddard Professor of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, Emerita, at New York University (NYU), and Visiting Professor of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell University.

In 2019, Peter reached out to Marion to see what she would think about our AMP grazing research that you see in “Roots So Deep (you can see the devil down there)”.

We sought funding from big food, clothing, and even oil companies, figuring they should all help pay to get the carbon out of the air where it's become a problem, and into our soils, where it offers a ton of solutions.

We knew that would invite pushback, which is why we worked with skeptics and critics from the beginning to ensure our methods - and our results - would stand up to the strictest scrutiny.

In this episode, Peter and Marion discuss our goals, our funders, and our approach behind our $10 million research budget.
