Did you know❓ 40% of food crops are lost yearly due to #climatechange and #biodiversityloss. On United Nations International Day of Plant Health, CGIAR is launching the Plant Health Initiative, led by #CIMMYT, aimed at contributing to SDG2 on #ZeroHunger More👉 bit.ly/3sp2LP

Without plants, we would lose 8️⃣0️⃣% of the food we eat. We depend on #PlantHealth for: 🍅 #FoodSecurity 👩🏾‍🌾 Farmers' livelihoods 🌍 A healthy #environment As we celebrate the first #PlantHealthDay ahead of #BiodiversityDay, learn more via Food and Agriculture Organization.

Today is #PlantHealthDay! 🌱🍅🥦 Can you imagine a world without plants? They account for 80% of the food we eat and 98% of the oxygen we breathe. Join Food and Agriculture Organization in this first-ever celebration of the #PlantHealth: fao.org/plant-health-d…

For an ongoing course on on-farm experimentation organized by @desousakaue, we put together a list of readings, that not only covers technical aspects but also social, historical, epistemological aspects. Any further suggestions? @1000FARMS

Pleased to announce our upcoming Alumni Symposium taking place in Ghana this October. The theme is "Advancing research on indigenous crops (in Africa) to sustainably meet pressing local food and nutrition security needs." Alumni can apply by 8th Sept forms.gle/BfhqLzzLPiSajD…

Renaming Indigenous crops and addressing colonial bias in scientific language dlvr.it/SYtzC6

Very pleased to collaborate with Will Dwyer & RheeLab on this article. Indigenous crops maybe scientifically neglected & undervalued but certainly not orphaned, forgotten or underutilized. They are impt. food security crops for millions of people in their custodian communities.

Applied Biosystems Thank you for supporting scientists like Dr Enoch Achigan-Dako, pictured here, of the Genetics, Biotechnology and Seed Science of UAC Benin. He's researching how to make Benin's orphan crops resilient to current agricultural conditions to help decrease food insecurity in Benin #uacbenin 🇧🇯🔬🌱
