The Queen of Crop Breeding

photo (13)Yes, I know blogging has been slow the past week or so, but I’ve been on leave and Jeremy way too busy with work for everyone’s good, though mostly his. But look, you got couple of big fat Brainfoods to keep you going, no? ((Oh, and BTW, if that paper on oxygen and seed longevity was of interest, stay tuned, I’ve got a treat in store for ya…)) Anyway, thought you might be interested in this piece in Kenya’s Saturday Nation newspaper a couple of days back. It’s a profile of AGRA plant breeder Dr Jane Ininda. The illustration is a (poor quality, alas) photo of the actual newspaper, which I took because it was such a treat to see a crop breeder splashed all over a major national newspaper. And the effect is just not the same in the digital version.
