Since 2004, Defra UK has paid Soil Association to host a database to help organic farmers source organic seed, and to minimise 'emergency' use of non-organic seed. In 2022, use of non-organic seed by UK organic farmers hit a record high. SSA is investigating... more soon!

Great day at the Research Triangle visiting Pairwise - very impressive to see the strengths of their approach to innovation that leverage recent advances in #geneediting techniques, computational biology and their knowledge of the food system.

In a #SlimeGate exposé, I showed how #IARC tried to cover up the late addition of glyphosate to #Monograph112 (originally on insecticides). When lawyers in a glyphosate lawsuit used a false IARC document, Robert Tarone wrote for THE FIREBREAK on how flawed the IARC process is.

New article published today quantifying continued environmental benefits from herbicide use in Sask. The adoption of GM crops has reduced herbicide use by 45%, while the impact on the environment has dropped by 65%. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Over-precautionary EU regulation of gene editing will not only disadvantage European agriculture, but will also hamper global efforts to tackle urgent climate, biodiversity and food security challenges, argue economists Graham Brookes and Stuart Smyth scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/brookessmyth

Spot the Golden Rice here at a market in Philippines. Every year of delay in approval causes 8500 child deaths in Bangladesh. It could provide 89–113% of the vitamin A for preschool children. Not approving is thus outright outrageous 😡 us2.campaign-archive.com/?u=831d5b3f769…

Reality: glyphosate is less acutely toxic, has low ecological impact, and does not pose risks to human health. Anti-science activists exploit chemophobia and the appeal to nature fallacy because they lack evidence. Read more ⬇️ immunologic.substack.com/p/glyphosate-a…

Over the last century, we've dramatically increased agricultural productivity and food security through science and innovation. Why would we want to reverse that progress?
