Hello Newsletter Subscribers,
We have recently posted a new “Check it out” article pointing to an online article asking questions related to breeding in corn, and highlighting how landraces, or old varieties can contain genes that have been lost through breeding which could be beneficial in counteracting the impacts of climate change. Though corn is not one of the top Pacific Northwest commodities, this discussion is relevant to many other important crops in the region: https://www.agclimate.net/2021/03/08/check-it-out-some-thoughts-on-plant-breeding-to-adapt-to-climate-change/.
Please take a look and distribute widely through your networks, lists, and newsletters.
Sincerely,
Your AgClimate Team
