Real Selection for Improvement


Genetic improvement in farm stock and produce is not hard to find or see, even if it’s nearly invisible in the world of pedigree books.

When I was a kid, green peppers were green and rarely any other color, and were considerably smaller than these massive, multi-colored and quite sweet “green” peppers.

Green peppers will turn red and sweeten if left to fully ripen. The red ones have more vitamin A.
