Experimental Farm Network (EFN): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:03, 17 April 2017

The Experimental Farm Network (EFN) gives the following descriptive information:

The EFN is an open network aimed at reversing climate change by collaboratively developing the crops & agricultural systems of the future.

EFN exists because our agricultural system is broken. As a society, we no longer grow crops primarily for human consumption, but as commodities. We don’t farm in harmony with the environment, but in ways that harm it. We’ve stopped breeding plants for resilience, taste, and nutritional value: instead we genetically engineer and patent them to maximize corporate profits.
