The session of the Section @AppliBotany_DBG on the Botanikertagung in Bonn 2022 was entitled “Applied Botany for Sustainability”. The talks attracted many scientists, the lecture hall was overcrowded, what a success! The audience challenged the speakers with numerous questions.

[AppliedBotany_DBG @AppliedBot_DBG]

Welcome to the tweets of the Section Applied Botany! The German Society of Applied Botany separated 100 years ago from the German Society for Plant Sciences. Only recently the section of @AppliBotany_DBG joint the @PlantSciDBG_en to make both basic and applied science stronger.

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Modern biotechnology can help make agri-food systems more sustainable, but the protection of the EU's high food safety standards must always come first.

Today, we are launching a public consultation to provide views on New Genomic Techniques for plants.

#Urbangardening produces vegetables in the smallest spaces amidst residential areas. They enrich caloric staple foods with vitamins and minerals and help people with low income or limited capacity for self-supply to improve their diet.

Polytunnels enable off-season crop production and help to ensure access to safe and nutritious food all year around. They can help to improve food security.

[Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality @JAB_FQ]

The first article in this year’s @JAB_FQ Special “Applied Botany for Sustainability” by Harbart et al. @igz_leibniz is online. They analyse how antifogging agents on polytunnels influence lettuce growth.
