Talking Business examines the impact of the war in Ukraine on food prices and levels of global hunger.

The impact of the war in Ukraine is being felt around the world with food prices soaring. Millions of tonnes of grains are trapped by the war that would have been sent to some of the world's poorest countries - leading to warnings of dangerous levels of global hunger. This is particularly true for Africa where millions are at risk of hunger and destitution. We'll hear from the World Food Programme about the scale of the crisis. And from the head of Agriculture at the African Union about possible solutions for the future.
We'll also be speaking to the boss of a company using the latest cutting edge technology to help African farmers increase production and make more money.
