#Agtech will help revolutionize farming for growers across the world. Egypt’s age-old systems are being upgraded with services that offer weather forecasts, and advice on irrigation, fertilizers and market needs. https://t.co/0vLcMrP6LS
Soaring fertilizer prices are speeding up the adoption of #agtech. The tools of synbio will play a key role in making sure the tools growers have are not only cost-effective, but also climate-smart.

We’re excited to see the @WhiteHouse investing in #agtech to reduce the world’s carbon footprint!
This month, @USDA announced they’re investing $2.8B in climate-smart projects to build and expand agriculture production.

Efforts to reduce chemical fertilizer-based emissions are picking up steam!
A new report found Canadian farmers could see a 14% decrease in greenhouse gas emissions from nitrogen fertilizer by 2030 with sustainable farming practices and new #agtech.

Biology will be a core part of our toolkit to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – great read by Bayer’s Matthias Berninger.
The Bio Revolution is transforming agriculture & healthcare – and it’s just getting started.

Can we engineer plants so they're better at photosynthesis? Yes!
In another demonstration of biotech's ability to improve food systems, a recent study shows how we can increase the efficiency of photosynthesis – and boost soybean yields in the process.

An exciting development for climate-smart agriculture: rice that produces its own fertilizer.
Researchers engineered "rice that encourages soil bacteria to fix nitrogen…[which] may reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilizers needed to grow cereal crops.”

The ag industry is turning to “deep technologies” like synthetic biology and AI to boost yields and lower emissions.
We’re proud to be cited by Fortune as an example of how deep tech companies are tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges.

To deliver on the promise of climate-smart agriculture, we need leadership from the private and public sectors.
Passing the Inflation Reduction Act – with nearly $40B for climate-smart ag initiatives – is a remarkable step forward for the industry.

As technology enables us to engineer better performing crops, it’s essential that we welcome input from all stakeholders in the design process.
The next generation of sustainable agricultural solutions should benefit every grower, everywhere.

“To handle increased food demand and navigate environmental threats in the coming years, the agriculture industry will need to embrace digitization—especially in underserved regions.”
The need to embrace technology in agriculture has never been clearer.

Growers have been slow to adopt biologicals for a simple reason – they haven’t performed well in the field.
The next generation of ag biologicals is changing this, and will offer growers sustainability benefits alongside breakthrough performance.
