🍀Calling all experts in the Ag sector! Agriculture is facing a dual imperative: producing more to feed 10 billion people by 2050 while adapting to climate change. Unpredictable weather patterns are leading to larger and more frequent harvest failures, threatening global food security. As a result, plants must adapt on-site to survive these changing conditions, a task that becomes increasingly difficult with the escalating frequency and intensity of climate extremes. ⭐️Good news is that developing climate-resilient plant varieties and enhancing their carbon sequestration potential is possible through novel genetic engineering approaches and with evolving regulatory landscape around GM crops, we believe that time to build in this space is now! So if you are an entrepreneurial scientist with deep technical expertise (e.g. PhD level or equivalent industry experience) in plant biotechnology, join our next cohort to build a stellar Ag-Adaptation company with Marble! Applications closing soon: https://lnkd.in/efgTyAqt 📅 Deadline: March 1, 23:59 CET #agriculture #climatetech #deeptech #cropengineering #plantbiology

In only 30 years, farmers will need to double their current productivity to keep up with the demands of our growing population. At the same time, there is a growing demand from politics and society to achieve this in a more sustainable way, despite having less arable land. It's no small task, I can assure you. In my recent interview for Crop Science Market Reporting, I shared how passionate we are at BASF Agricultural Solutions about building a more sustainable future for agriculture, by connecting innovation, customers and society. Sustainability is our driving force every day, but we understand that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. That´s why our focus extends across the entire agricultural value chain, from seeds and traits to seed treatment, biological and chemical crop protection, as well as digital farming solutions. Through continuous innovation and collaboration, we aim to bring more than 30 major R&D projects from our innovation pipeline to the market, including the launch of eight new active ingredients by 2030. To support these efforts, we invest approximately €2.5 million euros per day (€900 million in 2023) in R&D, and over 3,000 employees working in R&D, only in the agricultural sector. I have great confidence in our sustainability strategy and the strength of our team. We are fully committed to building a sustainable future for agriculture, #ForTheLoveOfFarming, the #BiggestJobOnEarth.

🌱 Thrilled to Share My Journey in Plant Biotechnology! 🌱 As I approach the completion of my Master’s thesis in Plant Biotechnology, I’m excited to take the next step in my career. My passion for plant science, combined with hands-on experience in genetic engineering, plant physiology, and molecular biology, has fueled my commitment to solving challenges in agriculture through innovative biotechnology solutions. In my current research, I am focusing on plant physiology and the development of high-quality herbicides, where I have successfully gained insights and utilized automation to address challenges in weed management strategies. This experience has sharpened my skills in Research Laboratory and Greenhouse Experiments, and I am eager to apply them in practical, real-world applications. I’m actively looking for opportunities to contribute as a Research Scientist, Biotechnologist, Agronomist/Plant Specialist, Lab Technician/Plant Breeder in plant biotechnology, focusing on driving innovative research and development. If your team is working on projects that aim to push the boundaries of plant science then, Let’s work together. I would love to connect and explore potential opportunities. 📩 Feel free to message me or connect directly! #PlantBiotechnology #JobSeeking #BiotechResearch #InnovationInAgriculture #MolecularBiology #Greenhouse Research #Biotech #PlantScience #MolecularBiology #Genetics
