Somebody in our house (not me) left half a bag of potato gems ON TOP of the freezer last night. I only found it this morning. Local birds have been very happy with this unexpected potato bounty. Unfortunately not Birds Eye branded which would have been endearingly apposite.

👀Great, hopeful review on one avenue to increase #crop yield 🌿🧪.
Context - we'll need 35-50% more food globally by 2050 but there are few signs that we're getting there. Yes, many issues in this space.
But photosynthesis is now one of the plant metabolic pathways where we have really good understanding, sufficient to see meaningful improvements of yield in the field, in #rice, #potato, #soybean. This is detailed in the review ➡️ #PlantSci #FoodSecurity
