From 2018-20, 6 million hectares of forest/year were cleared for commodity production. This needs to decrease by 1.2 mil ha/year (20% compared to 2021) through 2025 to reach the zero commodity-driven deforestation target.

1/ You’ve sequenced your samples and identified variants. Great! 🙌
Now, here's how you can use @ensembl to find out the effect of your variants on #protein structures and interactions. A thread...🧵

A misleading paper in @ScienceMagazine just came out talking about how a single gene can increase rice yield by 41-68%. As a (wanna-be) plant breeder, I’m here to tell you why this study is misleading, and we can’t “solve” yield through single genes 🧵

At Cherokee, OK wheat tour, @OSU_smallgrains describes Butler’s Gold and Short-season wheat, which is like taking GrazenGrain wheat and turning it inside-out. Soil moisture in February-March will be critical for spring tillering and success of the genetics.

After two years of writing + editing, the (proof-read) hard copy is finally here! Thank you to everyone who helped with this book.
I'll tweet about a few unique things about this book.

Plant late, finish early. Flip the script of GrazenGrain. Stay tuned.
@OSU_smallgrains I checked some production fields on the way back today. I’m telling you 14124-2 gets me as pumped as Hubbard-Wallace returning this fall. This is a short season exp in @osuwit SR class. I planted in early Dec.
