Comment on "Summit must focus on food security" (China Daily, May 18)
Technological innovations such as biotechnology, nanotechnology and biofortification are crucial to increasing agricultural productivity, building resilience to weather-related shocks, enhancing the nutritional value of food crops, and ensuring food safety. Biotechnology has great potential to improve crop yield, nutrition and resilience to natural damages, which will be even more frequent in the future due to climate change.
