Climate-Resilient Crops: Engineering Plants for a Changing World

Climate change threatens global food security through droughts, floods, extreme temperatures, and new pests. Agricultural biotechnology must develop crops that thrive in harsh conditions while maintaining nutritional value and yield. This involves understanding plant stress responses, manipulating metabolic pathways, and creating varieties adapted to specific regional challenges. With smallholder farmers most vulnerable to climate impacts, can biotechnology create crops that ensure food security for all?
