This approach enables a detailed understanding of factors influencing plant physiology and productivity, allowing for optimized cultivation tailored to specific crop requirements.<\/p><p>Additionally, the program emphasizes the large-scale propagation of economically important crops, including oil palm, coconut, and cassava.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a3fa296 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a3fa296\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-75dc935\" data-id=\"75dc935\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d4180d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4d4180d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-31079\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-440x330.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.biotec.or.th\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/U.S.-Embassy-visit-2.jpg 1477w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The delegations from the USDA, U.S. Embassy Bangkok, led by Ms. Kelly Stange, Agricultural Counselor for Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos, visited National Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (BIOTEC) for collaboration discussions in agriculture and tour facilities.
