Enjoy ag, science and space exploration? If so, read this story

If you're an Agweek reader, you definitely enjoy agriculture. And most likely you value science, too. I have no idea how many of you support space exploration, as I do, but I'm certainly not the only aggie who does.

So some of you will like reading about work at the International Potato Center in Lima, Peru. The project involves spuds that can grow under Mars atmospheric conditions, as well as extreme climates on Earth.

Here’s the organization’s web site . Put “Mars” into the site’s search function and you’ll come with stories and video.

Pretty cool stuff, at least to me. I think more than a few Agweek readers will agree.
