St. Louis is a major hub for the agriculture technology industry. St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem recently saw first-hand the work being done in plant science to improve the lives of people globally.

On Oct. 9, Musalem toured the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center, a research institute bringing together plant scientists from around the world to solve global challenges. While there, he also met with leaders from Cultivar, a cross-sector collaboration focused on improving food security worldwide and contributing to economic growth in St. Louis and abroad.
