Zero Hunger: JCU kicking (Sustainable Development) Goals

We're currently taking a look at how JCU Researchers, teaching staff and students are contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, highlighting work from different researchers or Disciplines across the university. This week, for Zero Hunger, we're shining a light on the work of Professor Joe.

Goal 2: Zero Hunger
Professor Zhang-Yue Zhou (Professor Joe) from the JCU College of Business, Law and Governance was born, brought up and worked in rural China.  Professor Joe understands the hardship farmers have to go through and endure. His rural experience has led to devoting his expertise to work that can help to improve the lives of farmers and the development of rural communities.

Over the past three decades, his research has focused on food production and consumption, food security, rural development, agricultural trade, and agribusiness institutions. Professor Joe's ultimate desire is to conduct research towards making a contribution to the exploration of possible ways to promote a balance between the developed and developing countries of the world and sustainable development for the international community.

Professor Zhang-Yue Zhou has 89 publications in ResearchOnline@JCU.
