Talking Biotech with Dr. Kevin Folta
Science:Life Sciences
Nitrogen is essential for crop growth. That reality has led to intensive crop fertilization using nitrogen fixed through the Haber-Bosch process, which has energy costs in production and transport. At the same time there are well known examples of nitrogen-fixing bacteria associated with plants, as well as some that colonize within the plant itself. Can these naturally occurring bacteria actually be used within the plant to assist in the nitrogen fixation process? Nolan Berg joins the podcast from Azotics, a company with a pioneer product. This bacterial strain lives within the plant, fixing nitrogen and limiting the need for exogenous application.
