For plant biotech, Bt has aready been the iphone.

For further public acceptance, perhaps practical transgenic phytoremediation for treatment of air pollution indoors and out.

Long run: biofortification, eg golden rice.

Productivity has a direct correlation with nutrition. More attention & investment must be given to scaling nutrient enriched crops to increase availability & consumption. #biofortified #biofortification HarvestPlus GAIN Lawrence Haddad U.S. Mission Nigeria U.S. African Development Foundation USAID Advancing Nutrition
