Gene editing meets the pasture:
Cattle with a slick coat, enhanced through a small gene edit and approved by the FDA, are better equipped to handle heat stress.

By helping cattle stay cooler in hot climates, this innovation supports animal well-being and productivity—a major step forward for more sustainable livestock production as global temperatures rise.

This is another real-world application of how gene editing is delivering practical, everyday benefits for farmers, animals, and the future of food. Follow along in our series on gene editing in action.
