Plant breeding is a relatively new science, Little more than a century old. Using plant breeding, scientists have developed improved cultivators, espically using methods developed in the 1900s. However, the challenges have become daunting for agriculture to supply foods, feed, and biofuel for an increasingly resource-hungry world. Therefore, plant breeding must evolve and make use of new technologies to become more efficient and accurate at developing new and improved cultivators.
