Cool paper on Cell Wall Dynamics in the parasitic plant (Striga) and rice pathosystem. #parasiticPlants #MPMI Congratulations, Barminga et al! @DBarrminga @Striga_Steve @FredMobegi1 @em_bellis @asela_1 @elaHtterB @anamisylvester apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/MP…
Finger millet is a powerhouse crop known for its resilience and adaptability. Packed with protein, fiber, calcium, iron & zinc, it nourishes people and animals worldwide! 🍲🐄 New, resilient varieties will help improve farmers' livelihoods ➡️ buff.ly/4fJ9w52 #BOLDcwr
🌍 What is Biodiversity? A healthy planet depends on the balance and resilience of nature. It's what sustains life, supports ecosystems, and ensures the well-being of future generations. 🌱 Let's work together to protect it. #PeaceWithNature #COP16Colombia #KMGBF #SBI5
🔔The IYCB2024 is HERE! 🌍 Day 1 kicked off with inspiring stories and a call for unified #biodiversity action. #Youth voices led the way, highlighting the need for representation, empowerment, and funding in #conservation efforts. #YouthintoAction #IYCB2024 #GYBN #COP16
Fact #6: Each nation exercises sovereign control over GMOs. They decide which #GMOs can be developed and released to #farmers. Every country has its own regulatory agency overseeing GMOs and its own set of laws that govern their use. #BioTechOpportunities
Fact #10: Countries Will Manage #GMO Seed Production & Distribution Some seeds are patented; others are royalty-free. Farmers can save some seeds, but like #hybrids, others need yearly purchase to ensure traits. Ultimately, #farmers choose what to plant. #BioTechOpportunities
To address the unprecedented challenges in our global #foodsystems, we must find 🌟 new 🧑🌾actionable 🌱innovative and 🌈inclusive solutions based on #cropdiversity and to engage the #youth, the future stewards of our Earth 🌎 #InternationalYouthDay
This International Youth Day, let's celebrate the role of young people in agriculture!🌾👩🏽🌾👨🏿🌾🧑🏻🌾👩🏾🌾 Their creativity, tech skills and knowledge sharing enhance farming practices and have the potential to drive sustainable change. #YouthDay
We need to increase our food production to meet Africa’s growing population! One technology cannot solve all the problems. We need to take advantage of all the tools that are available to increase agricultural production -Dr. Leena Tripathi. @aatfafrica @IITA_CGIAR #ACAT 2023
Africa’s secret strength is the youth! They have the potential to take up agricultural technologies and take advantage of the benefits they have to offer.- Mr. Joe Cornelius, Chief Executive Officer, Gates Ag One @aatfafrica #ACAT2023
“How do we want to leverage #biotechnology as a tool for adaptation, resilience & economic growth at a time when #climate change has had a toll on indegenious practices? shared vision on biotech has some solutions that could be leveraged” says @ChinokoV #ACAT2023 @ScienceAlly
On this #MashujaaDay, we celebrate Kipchumba, a cotton farmer from Baringo, and several progressive farmers like him. Bernard was among the first to plant #biotech cotton in #Kenya and has paved way for others. He is among the #FarmShujaaz working to revive our textile industry!
