Affordability: Increased YieldAffordability: Increased Yield
• Critical to stay pace with increasing populations and fewer acres
• Adoption of hybrid seed and management practices make big difference
• Break-through targets for plant genetics – yield, drought tolerance, nitrogen efficiency
• Safer more effective crop pesticide technology
