In 1804, mankind reached its first major milestone: 1 billion people. Since then, the global population has grown exponentially. In the last 20 years, we have grown from just under 6 billion to 7.5 billion people. By 2056, the global population is expected to reach 10 billion, requiring a 70% increase in food productivity and a 100% increase in protein production. The addition of an extra billion people every 12 years, or 220,000 people per day, signifies an unprecedented demand for the world’s natural resources; one that will be resolved through a revolutionary transformation in global agriculture.

Farming techniques rely on an unsustainable amount of water, energy, and agrochemicals to sustain the world. Soon the current means of production will be unable to meet the growing demand for food. We must tackle these problems head on with natural, alternative solutions, like neem, to avoid a Malthusian catastrophe! Additionally, we can solve this imminent catastrophic issue of food supply and security with organic inputs, like biopesticides and biofertilizers, and precision technologies, such as the ability to collect and analyze plant data and health needs!

Every day a new technological advancement is made, and these new tools must be integrated into our daily lives, especially when it comes to protecting our planet. By utilizing natural resources like neem, we will strengthen and protect our global food supply, allowing mankind and the environment to flourish.
