Its almost universally agreed that a perfect storm is developing and agriculture faces a
gargantuan task - feeding the worlds population expected to approach the 10 billion mark by
2050.And if thats doable, the challenge is how to accomplish this while wrestling with variables
including less land, water, farmer numbers, plus the impact of climate change.
The Arizona Genomics Institute (AGI) reports, With increasing competition for land, water, and
other resources, breeders must develop the next generation of crops that have less negative
environmental impact and fewer input requirements.
The Institute, based in Tucson adds, Crops will be needed that grow with less water, fertilizer,
pesticides, on poorer soils, and with less labor - and still produce high-yielding and highlynutritious foods.
Sounds like an impossible task, yet AGI Director Rod Wing is optimistic.
Science will be there in time to meet this goal, Wing says. This is a problem were going to
solve in our lifetime. Its going to happen.
He adds, Im an optimist and my motivation every day involves thinking about how to solve the
dilemma and the impact our research will make on the agricultural world.

Spiced pumpkin soup with brown rice, black beans and lime whipped feta.
I am not built for cold weather. To me, chill is a fun killer. I know there is skiing and ice skating
and pretty white landscapes and amazing coats and boots, but this all glosses over that very banal
fact that being cold completely sucks. The main redeeming feature, other than the
aforementioned, is it means long slow-cooking in the kitchen, the kind that has
wafting, roasting smells escaping through your windows and floorboards.
And bowls of deliciousness like this spiced number that is part soup, part hearty soul-fortifying
meal. It's basically as many comfort foods as you can find to fit in one bowl with a touch of fluwarding garlic and spice.
