🌽 "Decisions should be guided by evidence rather than fear" - Prof. Rebecca Ndana. She's spent years researching #agriculturalbiotech. In 2024, she decided to put her science - and her reputation - on the line by planting #TELAMaize on her own farm. 🔗https://t.co/gj5WwcAfSm

This is how biotechnology is protecting African harvests: · In-Plant Protection (insect-protected and drought-tolerant). · Better Yields, Lower Costs. · Proven Results. #TELAMaize #FoodSecurity #Biotechnology #Biosafety #Biocontrol #AgriTech #SustainableFarming #AfricaGrowing

Many farmers rely heavily on chemical pesticides. But: · They can be expensive. · Pests develop resistance. · Environmental impact is real. Genetic biocontrol offers a more targeted alternative, and the TELA Maize Project can be used a case study. #TELAMaize #FoodSecurity
