webinar-banner-kasp-innovation

Abstract

In the COVID-19 era, maintaining food security and agriculture supply chain resilience have never been more critical, as are the technology choices to address these challenges. In this webinar, the spotlight is on three “SuperSheroes,” women scientists who are seeding global change in agriculture by championing modern genomics that promote sustainability, efficiency, and optimal breeding workflows.

Join us as we travel to Malaysia to study sustainable oil palm production facilitated by a novel genetic prediction technology, Sub-Saharan Africa to discover fortified potato varieties supporting malnourished communities, and Madagascar to identify superior parental lines in amaranth.
