My house always has bananas on the counter, but it's far from being my family's major food source compared to the 500 million people worldwide who rely on bananas for survival. The very serious issue of the threat to bananas from pests, pathogens and Mother Nature finally has some hope for solutions...thanks to scientists and new gene editing techniques. I wonder how many other crops we will get to see that incorporate "climate-smart varieties"?
