COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: FEC: CONVERGING AI, BIOMECHANICS, AND GENOMICS TO ENGINEER LODGING RESILIENT FIELD CROPS -CEREAL CROPS SUCH AS CORN, WHEAT, AND SORGHUM SUPPLY MOST OF THE CALORIES THAT PEOPLE EAT WORLDWIDE. YET EACH YEAR, MANY OF THESE PLANTS BREAK AND TOPPLE BEFORE HARVEST. THIS FAILURE DESTROYS 5 TO 25 PERCENT OF THE POTENTIAL HARVEST, WASTING FOOD AND COSTING FARMERS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
