BARI
Potato freed of deadly disease
Bangladeshi scientists have successfully field-tested a genetically modified (GM) potato resistant to late blight, one of the most devastating plant diseases caused by fungal attack. After the last trial is over in February, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) will approach regulators for approval of the RB (blight resistant) gene-infused potato.
First national vegetables fair begins
The day is not far when farmers would not need soil to grow vegetables, fruits and flowers in Bangladesh.
