Azteculture
Azteculture Overview
Azteculture uses genomic editing for the cultivation of domesticated exotic crop plants to make these crops available to local farmers and markets. Azteculture incorporates wet lab, bioinformatic, administrative, and field work in a productive and warm environment.
Azteculture Climate Tech relevance
By using gene editing technology to modify the traits of plants like vanilla and saffron, Azteculture can enhance crop efficiency and yield. This means that farmers can produce more crops with fewer resources, reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture. Likewise, whilst traditionally a large number of flowers are needed to produce a small amount of saffron spice, Azteculture's genetic modifications could increase yield per flower. This has the potential to reduce the amount of land required for saffron cultivation, helping to conserve natural habitats and reduce deforestation, which is a significant driver of climate change.
