Grafting trick could make it easier to gene-edit a huge variety of plants https://t.co/fteJT58vd5 some plants including cocoa, coffee & avocado cannot be gene-edited but a technique involving grafting could change that, opening the door to more productive and nutritious varieties

@efarmerdot Does that windshield wiper help?

[Bob Bartley @rsbfarms]

@dawdge @field2fieldag It actually is able to variable rate Seed. The seed comes from the cart.

@CamiDRyan I hope our farm organizations join forces to defend the safety of glyphosate. It is absolutely necessary on most farms. Farmers have applied more chemistry with various types of equipment than a kid with a backpack sprayer, and we are a pretty healthy bunch!

Do you need to worry about the #DirtyDozen? The tiny amounts of #pesticide residues that can sometimes be found on fruits & veggies are not a health and safety concern. https://t.co/EcyYFJYfTq

@DarylFransoo @Dennis_Prouse You want these people there so you can bend their ear and inform them of the issues in Ag. Just call it a lobbying expense! Could there be dividends if it was free for government employees?

@LaurenDalyce Congratulations Lauren!!!

This is excellent news! The EU Commission has approved the safe use of glyphosate for a 10 year extension. This will benefit sustainable ag in the EU. This is a huge defeat for EU-based eNGOs and disinformation. A vote of confidence for science. https://t.co/0EFTBaLIlp

Hey @KAP_Manitoba @planfarmsafety Looks like another unsafe practice. Farmers need to leave space to allow traffic to pass. Also, bad timing at rush hour! #farmsafety #impatienttraffic

@efarmerdot I thought you would say at the North Pole where the nights are long!

@CamiDRyan @aggiecoolchick @CropLifeCanada Great work, Trish !!! No speech???

@CamiDRyan @drinkwoodmilk When did this happen and how many times is this?

Do you have concerns about the #DirtyDozen list? There is no need to avoid fruits and veggies. @GovCanHealth says there is no scientific evidence that eating conventionally grown produce poses a health risk because of pesticide residues. https://t.co/UZPOINNt98
