  • How chromatography, mass spectrometry, and other analytical tools allow Fagan to identify plant and animal compounds.
  • Fagan's research in comparing conventional vs organic production methods and his key takeaways.
  • The diversity and variability of plant compounds and their potential for innovation in the world of agriculture.
  • Fagan's tentatively named "Farmer Led Innovation Network" and how it is combining cutting-edge science and data collection.
  • How evidence of glyphosate presents across different crop types, agricultural products, and soil profiles.
  • The evolution of glyphosate detection and what science can tell us about glyphosate levels in our food.
