"-------- One of the things I have become very interested in is the development of better foods through cross-breeding and other natural means, while avoiding things that could cause the planet, or those on it, problems. It is not an easy thing to do, with the many easy ways of increasing yields through what has been found to be unscrupulous means.
In New Scientist, a story tells of the way that the protein needs of many in the third world are being partly met by potatoes, grown to have a higher amount of protein, and also being more adaptable to the growing areas, producing much greater overall yields. ------ "
