There are enough calories produced today to feed the world, but at significant environmental cost.About one-third of land is degraded, water quality is affected by fertilizer runoff and algae blooms, and climate has become a major factor over the past 20 years. Farming has always been risky, but while irrigation, fertilizer, and yield control work in parts of the world, farmers in developing countries lack that support, so shocks are magnified.

This concept of pilot purgatory and adoption is real. The average farmer is cautious and has roughly 40 chances—40 harvests over the course of their career. Every year matters, which limits the ability to take major risks in any one season.

With the right genetic changes, it is possible to raise yield by 20% to 30% per acre and, just as importantly, to protect crops from the losses caused by heat, drought, and disease. In today’s world, preventing yield loss is often just as valuable as increasing yield.

we have brought in about $9 billion of investment into India, in the areas we wanted, deliberately building ecosystems and clusters like the ones we have been discussing. That matters because it shows the strategy is not abstract; we are seeing outcomes that suggest this approach is working.

The US demand can never be completely onshored. There is simply too much volume, not enough capacity, and the price points required cannot be met domestically. The Indian manufacturing cost arbitrage is still massive, and I do not see that changing.

Previously, it was difficult to compete with the pace of innovation, manufacturing scale, and pricing coming out of China. Today, we are at an inflection point.
