A warm welcome to all who’ve come over from Tangled Bank #104 at the wonderfully named Dammit Jim!. Hope you find lots of stuff to your liking.
Nibbles: Seed aid
- Seed aid not always a good thing.
Enola bean patent revoked
As luck would have it I’m at CIAT in Cali, Colombia just as the story of the overturning of the infamous Enola bean patent is gaining traction. Everyone very excited around here.
Berry-Go-Round #4
If you landed here from Foothills Fancies, I’ve got only one word for you: Welcome!
Nibbles: Indo-Europeans, Ecosystems, Urban ag, Aquaculture, Pigs, Rice
- More on The Horse, the Wheel and Language. Giddyup!
- More species means more productivity. At least in the Patagonian steppe.
- Bogota urban agriculture to embrace native species.
- Ohio farmers to rear Amazonian fish. Amazonian farmers unavailable for comment.
- I wonder if Turkish pigs are genetically interesting.
- Ifugau rice terraces being abandoned by “world’s best rice farmers.” Ok that’s weird, because they’re also supposed to solve the rice shortage problem. Gosh, this is probably worth more than just a nibble.
