Without plant science products, our food could contain some nasty and unappetizing surprises:
|
1. However you say tomato, we all say they’re delicious. And pests think they’re pretty tasty too.
|
|
2. Jams, pies, cakes and ice cream – plant science makes it possible for us to enjoy strawberries in every way.
|
|
3. Do you love mangoes? So do fruit flies. Their larvae can cause a lot of damage.
|
|
4. If farmers didn’t use plant science, pests would ruin 44% of the world’s sweet corn.
|
|
5. Without crop protection products, 86% of apples would never make it to market.
