Catching up on agrobiodiversity news
Yes, I know we’ve been off the air for way too long, and that you’ve been missing your daily dose of agrobiodiversity Nibbles. But that doesn’t mean we were totally idle for the past several weeks. And if you’re really serious about catching up on the news, your best bet is to look back through our Twitter feed. Happy hunting and gathering…
Nibbles: Domesticating grasses, Svalbard, Explaining genebanks, Australian edibles, Carolina African Runner, Whale ball beer
- Grasses with bigger seeds and fewer stems make better crops.
- Genebanks are just the start.
- Wait, what’s a genebank?
- How much bush tucker is in genebanks anyway?
- Bringing back the Southern peanut.
- Smoked whale testicle beer for you, sir?
DivSeek, and more, at PAGXXXIII
Yes, we’re back. Kinda. Sorta. And the new year means PAG, XXIII of that ilk. Which you can follow on Twitter, of course, and various other ways no doubt. The meeting was preceded this year by a separate event launching the DivSeek initiative, which got a lot of media attention. Oh, and which has its own Twitter account now too.
