“I look forward to working with all to chart a course together, to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery in the agricultural sciences. We will speed up the application of this new knowledge to address the challenges facing the United States in global food and agriculture production. And we’ll translate this knowledge into tangible benefits for the American people and for the world.”
