Dear All
We have posted today, to bring to renewed attention, a classic and fascinating interview with organic seed breeder Dr John Navazio. The interview covers the deep philosphy, the politics and the practicalities of breeding for organic farming settings vs breeding for uniform and industrialised chemical-intensive monocultures. It delves into questions such as how much are modern focussed approaches weakening the genetic base of crop species. You may wish to tweet this, etc.
