Responding to climate change
Over 90% of work at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) relates to climate change, with breeding for drought tolerance stretching back to the 1970s. Climate change is already happening. Without immediate action to bring cutting-edge research to farmers, climate change will be devastating to food security in the developing world.
