What they’re saying: “The world is putting more pressure on our farmers, and they’re not getting as much support as they need to meet the demands and the challenges they face on a daily basis,” said Paul Rea, Senior Vice President, BASF Agricultural Solutions North America. This “demonstrates that we’re at the forefront of providing farmers with some much-needed support. It also will help us to amplify their voices within and outside of our agricultural food system."
Why it matters:Food insecurity and pest-driven disease, skyrocketing energy prices, increasingly unhealthy air—it’s clear we need sustainable solutions to tackle these challenges and whatever comes next for agriculture and the planet. Biotech is delivering.
