“The Conversation”
a radio show produced by Hawai`i Public Radio

The show aims to depart from O`ahu-centric stories and talk about Hawai`i as one state with many faces, facets, and interests.

The segment is scheduled for the second half of the hour-long broadcast.


Dr. Ragone has been the face of the Breadfruit Institute since NTBG created it in 2003. The Institute is engaged in an initiative to respond to critical global food security issues by expanding plantings of good quality breadfruit varieties in tropical regions. It is developing partnerships to make breadfruit varieties available as a viable sustainable resource for agriculture, agroforestry, and reforestation.

The interview will be aired at HPR2, FM89 and will be streamed over the web from:
