In this video, students will learn the importance of understanding plant biology to improve crop success, particularly in Hawaii. Carey Bon emphasizes selecting seed varieties with built-in disease resistance and heat tolerance, such as tomatoes resistant to yellow leaf curl virus and kale with black rot resistance. The video also explores the specific needs of crops like kalo (taro) and ʻulu (breadfruit), including soil preferences and spacing requirements. Additionally, it highlights the role of crop diversity and rotation in promoting soil health, preventing pests and disease, and enhancing farm resilience.
