It's Carrot Day! 🥕 Carrots are crunchy, tasty, and highly nutritious. Did you know they are a particularly good source of beta carotene, fiber, vitamin K1, potassium, and antioxidants? #FunFactFriday

Do you know of feral hemp growing anywhere in Wisconsin or surrounding states? If so, would you be willing to share some basic geographic and demographic information with us? Please go here for more information: ecals.cals.wisc.edu/2021/08/…

I have been avoiding this website for a while, but now that the election is over I am sure the Twitterverse is quite harmonious...

My brother Rick would have been 58 today but he’s not. In 2007, he went to a gun range in San Diego and shot himself in the head. This came after many years of addiction, depression, and thinking he was worthless. Each year on his birthday, I talk about mental health here.

Carrots haven't always been a vitamin A powerhouse. Over 25 yrs ago, ARS scientists began a quest to breed carrots packed with beta-carotene—an orange pigment used by the body to create vitamin A. Thanks largely to ARS, today carrots provide 75% more beta-carotene. #CarrotDay
And just like that the #SaferAtHome got much harder for my roommate @mollycharipar

I'm feeling a bit wild today... Might work from the kitchen table rather than the desk. #impulsivedecision

Thanks to Rhiannon Lake, @Dorrancelab, and @mchalelab for their contributions to this work. Also shout out to @hobgoblinss1, @StephKarhoff, and many others for their help collecting data.
A little participatory breeding today with breeders and growers rating hybrids. #carrot

Stunning R&D funding numbers coming out of @WhiteHouse today. How will this have America compete? NIH: -7% DOE: -17% NASA: -11% ARPA-E: -173% (not a typo - agency is eliminated, plus $311 million must be returned to Treasury) 1/4
