Singapore farms wrestle with the same challenge faced by farmers around the world: pest control. In the light of this challenge, a safe, organic and cost-efficient pesticide is vital to enable Singapore farms to bolster food security and contribute to hitting Singapore’s “30 by 30” goal – to produce 30 per cent of its nutritional needs locally by 2030.
The solution came from a 10-member interdisciplinary team from NUS, after six months of intensive research and innovation.
The multidisciplinary team includes students from Biomedical Engineering, Pharmaceutical Science, Data Science and Analytics, Life Sciences, Applied Mathematics, and Computational Biology.
