In today's podcast, Farmer Joel and Dr. Sina dive deep into the world of pharmaceutical crops and the heated debate surrounding them.
Did you know that food crops have been genetically engineered to produce vaccines, pharmaceutical drugs, enzymes, and lab reagents? Most of these crops are grown in open fields - in spite of several documented cases of cross-contamination.
In fact, open field trials of pharmaceutical crops have taken place every growing season since 1992!
Join the lively discussion as Joel and Sina unravel the mysteries behind these "pharmacrops," exploring their history, types, and the current regulatory landscape.
Plus, get Joel's unique take on whether laws like Tennessee's "vaccine lettuce" are a step in the right direction.
Tune in for a riveting conversation on the future of agriculture and medicine colliding in the field!
After tuning in, share your thoughts!
This week's Community question is: “Is there any research you think the taxpayers should fund? If so, what is it?”
