These research projects focus on specific crops. How are these crops selected?
The SBC aims to be of service to all crops, but of course we will emphasize those that are important in California.

In addition to the cotton pollination project, we will soon start a similar project with alfalfa.

The genetic project in tomato stems from the interests of several researchers at UC Davis and the importance of tomato production in California.

The choice of crops is really determined by what we see as needs and opportunities and by the interest of private partners or funding agencies who support the research projects.
