Cada a\u00f1o, los agricultores de todo el mundo gastan ochenta mil millones de d\u00f3lares en pesticidas para proteger sus cultivos. Estos pesticidas no solo afectan a los insectos da\u00f1inos, sino tambi\u00e9n a las abejas y a las bacterias beneficiosas del suelo. Adem\u00e1s, pueden contaminar los cursos de agua y da\u00f1ar el medio ambiente. Y, cada vez m\u00e1s, se les relaciona con enfermedades como la de Parkinson y el c\u00e1ncer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ante la creciente concienciaci\u00f3n sobre estos problemas, los pesticidas elaborados con microorganismos vivos est\u00e1n ganando popularidad. Desafortunadamente, estos pesticidas microbianos suelen ser menos efectivos, lo que obliga a los agricultores a elegir entre el posible da\u00f1o ambiental y mayores rendimientos de los cultivos.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ahora, una empresa llamada Robigo, cofundada por Andee Wallace, antigua estudiante del Instituto Tecnol\u00f3gico de Massachusetts (MIT) en Estados Unidos, est\u00e1 dotando a microorganismos presentes en la naturaleza de capacidades m\u00e1s potentes para combatir las plagas que afectan a los vegetales de inter\u00e9s agr\u00edcola. La empresa se vale de tecnolog\u00edas como el ARN de interferencia y la CRISPR, m\u00e1s com\u00fanmente asociadas con usos m\u00e9dicos, para obtener microorganismos autorreplicantes que atacan a los pat\u00f3genos de las plantas con mayor precisi\u00f3n que los pesticidas qu\u00edmicos y con mayor eficacia que otras soluciones biol\u00f3gicas.<\/p>\n

Robigo dota a microorganismos id\u00f3neos de la misma capacidad protectora que los pesticidas qu\u00edmicos pero sin los da\u00f1os colaterales que s\u00ed generan esos pesticidas. (Foto: Robigo \/ MIT.\u00a0CC BY-NC-ND 3.0<\/a>)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cLos pesticidas qu\u00edmicos han sido un pilar fundamental de la producci\u00f3n agr\u00edcola durante los \u00faltimos 70 a\u00f1os, hasta el punto de que resulta casi imposible imaginar un sistema agr\u00edcola sin ellos\u201d, reconoce Wallace. \u201cPero nosotros buscamos proporcionar a los agricultores nuevas herramientas que permitan un sistema alimentario productivo, resistente, seguro y en equilibrio con el medio ambiente\u201d.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

En ensayos de campo realizados en cinco estados de Estados Unidos, la empresa ya ha demostrado que sus microorganismos ofrecen resultados comparables a los de los pesticidas qu\u00edmicos. En uno de estos ensayos, en el que se compar\u00f3 el producto de Robigo con otro producto microbiano comercial, el de Robigo produjo un aumento del 250% en el rendimiento de los cultivos.
