Ronald Guendal, Bayer Crop Science’s global head of food security and advocacy, talks with Innovation Forum’s Ian Welsh about the trends in use of farming techniques and agriculture inputs – including fertilisers and pesticides and the development of new seeds – that are designed to sustainably boost productivity.
A particular focus for Bayer is to help the agriculture sector produce more food that is climate resilient. As Guendal points out, farming is both a driver, and a victim, of climate change.
