Why does #genediting matter? It can help #plantbreeders meet consumer, farmer and environmental needs. Providing solutions for challenges like drought, climate & disease. Allowing us to produce healthier more sustainable food with less food waste. Corteva U.S. #ASTACSS #JustGrowIt

Dr. Stupar University of Minnesota talks big picture academic trends in technology delivery and reagent development. Through years and years of public sector research and learning, we can create technologies that really benefit the world. One of the best examples is #geneediting. #ASTACSS

Stupar says #GeneEditing has greatly expanded academia's community of research. Looking at things like increased shelf life, better tasting, healthier food. Huge value in being able to target more than one gene at a time. An outcome example - high oleic soybean oil. #ASTACSS

#PlantBreeding has changed a lot over the years. Newer innovative methods can allow researchers to reach the same endpoint as through traditional plant breeding, but with more precision. #JustGrowIt #Innovation

Seth @marieeverheault Frank N. Foode That is a tough data set to fill but according to NAPB, membership hit a high of 626 this year. While this does not necessarily account for all plant breeders in the U.S., it is a great starting point!

2023 National Association of Plant Breeders meeting sponsored by Clemson; student workshop today sponsored by Bayer Crop Science and Corteva Agriscience. Awesome group of students!

NAPB 2023!!!

Midwest Tour day 12’s second stop was Corteva in Johnston where some old friends blew my students minds with among other things their amazing greenhouse facilities. Both stops innovate and rely heavily data to make selection decisions… OACStudentFederation OAC Alumni Assoc Plant Ag Guelph

Yesterday we had the pleasure to have a very inspiring conversation with David Bubeck and part of the Corteva's team in #ASTA conference. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn more about the breeding industry, which excites me and motivates me to continue in this journey.

As temperatures rise, corn growers face new challenges. 🌽 Corteva's Scott Heuchelin highlights the resurgence of corn stunt spiroplasma in the southern U.S. He’s also leading the ASTA phytosanitary committee. #CornGrowers #AgChallenges #ASTAFieldCrop hubs.li/Q02_fFSx0
