Enhanced radiation use efficiency and grain filling rate as the main drivers of grain yield genetic gains in the CIMMYT elite spring wheat yield trial. Perhaps more surprisingly, analysis suggests organic-adapted populations need to be selected for root traits to catch up in yield. For example in the A.

Genetic modification can improve crop yields — but stop overselling it. The input reduction principle of agroecology is wrong when it comes to mineral fertilizer use in sub-Saharan Africa. …but that doesn’t mean agroecology is wrong. So, diversify your mind? Diversify your research teams. Diversify your training set.

Lower yields mean less cash flow, contributing to wage stagnation. Coffee plants usually take three to four years to produce their first yield, making the crop a gamble at startup, but rising global demand may provide the incentive. It is high-yielding and rust-resistant and thrives in the shade at high altitudes.

“With gene editing on the horizon and that being able to complement biotechnology as a way to drive innovation and drive yields higher for farmers, that’s a big part of it,” he said. In this interview, Boeck talks about some of the technology Syngenta Seeds is exploring.

Crop yields in sub-Saharan Africa, for instance, are today only around a third of the global average, and smallholder farmers are amongst the most impacted by climate change despite being amongst the least responsible for its impact. By 2050, climate change could reduce yields for some crops by up to 35 percent.

Yields of non-GM corn are comparable to GM corn , according to seed industry sources, and can earn a premium price estimated at 10-20 percent higher than GM varieties. But corn is more than a food ingredient in Mexico. Corn holds tremendous cultural, symbolic, and spiritual value for Mexico’s Indigenous peoples.
