Feeding a growing population will require science, innovation and objective data. 🗣️

The future of agriculture and a sustainable food system depends on our ability to evaluate new technologies based on evidence, weighing both their benefits and limitations. 1/ @BioBeef

[CLEAR Center @UCDavisCLEAR]

From reducing insect damage to helping farmers use fewer insecticides, the discussion highlights how innovations in agriculture can involve important tradeoffs, benefits, and misconceptions. 2/

When people hear GMO, the conversation often stops before it starts.

In new CLEAR Conversations ep., our host & @BioBeef unpack why public perception of genetically modified crops doesn’t always align with science & explore one example that’s had measurable impact --Bt crops. 1/

CRISPR has become a widely used tool across medicine, research and agriculture.

Had some delicious seedless, thornless gene 🧬edited blackberries from #pairwise in Colombia 🇨🇴 they have more compact architecture that allows higher yields - they were delicious 😋
