Abstract

By the year 2030, the world population may increase significantly and top the nine billion benchmark.

Furthermore it will be difficult to increase the land area under cultivation without serious environmental complications. As a consequence the increased demand for food and fiber will have to be met by higher agricultural plant productivity.
