Humans have been modifying crops for thousands of years. Wheat is no different.
Every loaf of bread you've ever eaten came from a plant that humans spent centuries selecting, crossing and improving.
The idea that there is a "natural" version of wheat untouched by human intervention is a nice story. It's just not history.
Now Bayer has signed an agreement to accelerate the development of hybrid wheat.
The goal is simple: Produce wheat varieties that are more productive, more resilient and better able to cope with the increasingly challenging conditions farmers face.
And that's where things get interesting.
Most people don't realize that wheat yields have largely plateaued in many regions while demand continues to rise and weather becomes more unpredictable.
Meanwhile, wheat remains one of humanity's most important food crops.
For thousands of years, crop improvement meant saving the best seeds.
Today it means combining elite genetics, advanced breeding and a deeper understanding of plant biology.
Same goal.
Better tools.
The irony is that many people celebrate the random achievements of ancient farmers while fearing the tried and tested achievements of modern ones.
