Newsun is helping to transform and upgrade food systems at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)

On July 2, 2024, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and Chengdu NewSun held an online exchange discussion on restoring agro-ecosystems through biotechnology research and application and standardized management, responding to the international food crisis, and promoting the transformation and upgrading of the global food system. Mr. Lemma Samson, Ms. Liu Qingqing and Mr. Yang Puyun from the Innovation Department of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Ms. Yang Yongzhen, a well-known international expert on pesticides, Mr. He Qiming, Vice President of China Agricultural Technology Extension Association and Chairman of NewSun Biotechnology Research Institute, and the team of NewSun Biotechnology Research Institute participated in the exchange.

At the meeting, the two sides exchanged views on issues such as promoting food transformation and upgrading, coping with climate change and abiotic environmental problems under extreme weather, and solving grain increase and income. The New Sun team reported the successful cases and management schemes of restoring agro-ecosystem through agricultural standardized management and solving disease and pest resistance by using plant regulation technology, biostimulant technology, biological pesticides and chemical pesticides, increasing grain yield and improving the quality of agricultural products. The two sides conducted in-depth communication on the application, promotion methods and achievements of standardized planting management system.

According to FAO's State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2023 report, an estimated 691 million to 783 million people face hunger worldwide, with hunger still on the rise in regions such as Western Asia, the Caribbean and Africa, and more than 3.1 billion people globally cannot afford a healthy diet. As an agricultural biotechnology technology company, Newsun has been focusing on green agricultural biotechnology innovation for more than 20 years, focusing on the scientific research system construction and biotechnology research and development oriented to the whole crop health and plant protection, and playing an important role in strengthening the foundation of food security production, increasing food production, improving the quality and safety of agricultural products, and coping with food crisis

First, focus on soil remediation. At present, Newsun has formed more than ten patented technologies and products such as soil acidification, salinization, heavy metal repair and lump structure repair. By improving soil aggregate structure, improving acidified and salinized soil, improving soil fertility and fertility, improving cultivated land quality and improving crop soil environment, laying a solid foundation for high yield and high yield of grain.

Second, focus on the green prevention and control of diseases and pests. Newsun promotes the concept of prevention, preventive treatment and treatment, promotes the synergistic effect of biological pesticides and chemical pesticides around food crops, reduces the use of chemical pesticides, delays chemical pesticide resistance, reduces the dependence of diseases and pests on chemical pesticides, improves the quality and quality safety of agricultural products, and maintains biodiversity.
