Seeds in Space for Food Security on Earth Event organized by the International Atomic Energy Agency and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU), MUG2-HS 02, Muthgasse 18, 1190 Vienna. 27 March 2023 The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) have sent seeds into space, to investigate the effects of cosmic radiation and harsh space conditions on breeding new crop varieties to withstand the effects of climate change and help fight global hunger. As part of an IAEA Coordinated Research Project, the IAEA and FAO sent seeds of two plant species — sorghum, a cereal grain, and Arabidopsis, a type of cress — to the International Space Station (ISS) in November 2022, where they are being exposed to microgravity, extreme temperatures and cosmic radiation.
