Once the trait had been well characterized in 2006, greenhouse work began in order to find the best plants from the many lines they have produced. Once those lines were identified, field trials began, leading up to the recent approval by the USDA’s APHIS office of the ultra-low glossypol cotton for commercialization of production. For the seeds to be sold as food or feedstock still requires approval from the FDA.

Kind of like when I buy a lottery ticket. Recently, I picked up two of those small, rotund watermelons. They were nestled together in the same bin, in the same store, and had the same sticker on their rind. The one I gave my mom was sweet and juicy. The one I saved for myself was the worst — mushy and flavourless. It was the kind of watermelon that makes you sad and vow you’ll never buy again.

Not only is his oversized pumpkin the heaviest in North American history, but it’s also the second-heaviest pumpkin ever grown in the world. It weigh in only 96 pounds less than the holder of that title, a pumpkin grown in Germany in 2016 by a Belgian man.

Grattard created a position for her, and while it didn’t last long (Moko became pregnant), much of Moko’s baking philosophy stems from her time there.

There’s a lot of protein in cottonseeds—enough to meet the daily requirements of 600 million people should all cotton in the world be replaced with edible varieties, Hake said by telephone.

Millet. Several varieties of millet include white proso, red, golden, German and Japanese. All are eaten by a variety of ground-feeding sparrows, game birds, and waterfowl, but most backyard birds prefer white proso millet.

What’s striking here is that the idea of breeding cotton for edible cottonseed wasn’t some gee whiz inspiration of the biotech era; this is a project going back 70 years. It’s always worth noting that while our current technologies are producing novel solutions, the problems have been with us for a long time. We’ve been producing cotton with cottonseed packed with fat and protein that we just couldn’t fully utilize going back 7,000 years ago to the Kachi Plain of Balochistan, Pakistan, in the sixth millennium BC.
