Research will address constraints on water usage and environmental quality while supporting the agricultural sectors of the dairy, livestock, cropland and food processing industries and exploring solutions for long-term sustainability.
Design of what is said to be the nation’s largest research dairy begins as University of Idaho (U of I), Moscow, Idaho, secured an additional $11 million for the 540-acre Idaho Center for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (CAFE).
In studies performed by Yield10 in greenhouse or field tests, these traits have shown a range of promising activities such as good agronomic performance, increased photosynthesis, increased seed yield and/or increased biomass production.
J. R. Simplot Co., Boise, Idaho, signed a research agreement with Yield10 Bioscience, Inc., Woburn, Mass., to evaluate three novel yield traits in potato.
Gene editing technology like CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing tools may be able to significantly increase shelf life of avocados, strawberries and other fruits.
