FEATURE: 2013 conference & expo

The scoop on wheat innovation
The IAOM Conference’s keynote presentation was given at this
year’s IMEF breakfast by Justin Gilpin, chief executive officer of
the Kansas Wheat Association, on why biotech wheat is needed
and how different groups are working to make it a reality.
Gilpin said that with the need to double global grain production by 2050 to feed an estimated 9 billion people, technologies
and techniques must be developed to produce more food with
less water on fewer acres.
During the last 50 years, grain production, demand for grain
and population have increased, while global acreage dedicated
to grain has remained relatively static. This speaks highly of what
grain producers have been able to produce so far, but Gilpin said
the time has come for the next steps to be taken. Over the same
time period, corn bushels per acre have increased from 60 to over
140, and wheat has only increased from about 20 bushels per
acre to around 50.
Corn and soybean production have benefited from investments
in biotech technology. Gilpin told the audience it is important for
the same investments to be made in wheat.
Gilpin noted that in 2009, an international cohort of wheat,
milling and baking organizations came together to make the
case for biotech wheat. Wheat producer organizations in the

U.S., Canada and Australia have issued a statement in support of
biotech wheat. The groups are working together to synchronize
commercialization of biotech traits in the wheat crop. The groups
highlight the importance of wheat to the food supply, decline in
acres dedicated to wheat in all three countries, slow growth in
yield trends of wheat compared to other crops and a lack of public and private investment in wheat research worldwide.
Major international corporations are now taking steps to invest
in biotech wheat. Monsanto, Bayer, Syngenta, Limagrain, Dow
AgroSciences and Arcadia, to name a few, are industry players in
the world of biotech wheat and are making investments.
Gilpin showed a timeline with an end goal of biotech wheat
being available on grocery shelves by 2023. Along the way, industry and academia must work on trait development, international
regulatory review and a commercial testing phase, he said.
The Wheat Innovation Alliance, a diverse group of industry
leaders dedicated to the advancement of wheat innovation, has
formed to help foster a positive environment for wheat innovation. Its goal is to build consensus related to biotech wheat, drive
acceptance of biotech wheat, address challenges in an organized
way and drive consumer education of biotech wheat in advance
of commercialization.
