Bayer apuesta a la plantas que se autofertilizan

Bayer and Ginkgo Bioworks are collaborating on a $100 million venture to develop self-fertilizing plants by transferring nitrogen-fixing genes from peanuts to crops like corn, wheat, and rice. This innovation aims to reduce fertilizer costs and environmental impact, addressing the challenges of feeding a growing population with limited arable land. The partnership is part of a broader trend of investment in agricultural technology, with the market projected to reach $240 billion by 2050. Bayer's acquisition of Monsanto is seen as complementary to this effort, with testing planned in Sacramento, CA.
