3:14Now Playing"I went back to a conference and thanked them for setting my life's agenda: To document in easy-to-understand language every edible plant in the world, so that every location — doesn't matter whether in the deserts or the swamps or the atolls — you can grow local plants, that suit local conditions." #AusOfTheYear
Since establishing Food Plants International in 1999, Bruce has helped document more than 33,500 species of edible plants around the world.
Bruce's dedication to sharing this information and improving food security, nutrition and health outcomes for people in developing countries has earned him the 2022 TAS Senior Australian of the Year award.
