HYBRID FOODS
(POLICY BRIEF)
2. Introduction
Ironically, the policy brief is basically providing a concise
summary as well as effective and efficient policy strategy in
order to direct the research towards a particular way. As far as
research paradigm ‘Hybrid Foods’ is concerned, it is necessary
for us to make certain policies in order to complete the research
in an effective and efficient way. A productive policy should
be there in order to complete this research more effectively and
efficiently. Here, we need to talk about hybrid foods and
policies associated with it regarding its research, interviews,
data collection, etc. are essential components in which clear
policies would be made in order to conduct this research on
Hybrid Foods in an effective and efficient way. As we know
what hybrid foods actually are and what are certain procedures,
methods to grow them appropriately. Hybrid foods is basically
type of genetically modified food is basically extracted from
different cross-breed plants.
Their DNA’s are being altered by using effective methods of
genetic engineering. Genetic engineering acts a strategic policy
according to which hybrid foods are being grown and take
certain benefits from it which would be beneficial for
consumers from many aspects. Genetic engineering is a basic
tool which we used for variety of purposes (Plumer). Hybrid
food is a genetically engineered food which is produced from
cross-breeding plant along with controlled pollination. The seed
which is called hybrid produces a new plant containing
properties of both crossed-plants (CA). These cross-breeding
plants are produced with higher productivity, insect resistance
along with enhanced nutrition. The prime example of
genetically modified foods are processed grocery products
contain such ingredients which have been modified by genetic
engineering. They have a great impact on diabetes and boost-up
diabetes action in the human body. Furthermore, to conduct this
research we have efficient policies regarding research,
interviews, data collection, etc. For instance, in order to
conduct interviews, we have to visit farms and associated
3. persons in this field i.e. agriculture according to our research
policy.
Identified Problem Discussion
We already identified research problem based on which we
collected data and did extensive secondary research effectively
and efficiently. As far as research’s policy brief is concerned,
we would discuss this problem regarding ‘Production,
Sustainability and Benefits if Hybrid Foods’. There are certain
policies associated with the problem and research paradigm and
in order to explain them briefly, a thorough discussion is
necessary to address the problem before the world that how
much it is important to people of all age groups and to the
national economy as well. We shall discuss this problem in light
of effective policies regarding addressing and implementation
problems strategy successfully. As far as production and
sustainability are concerned, it is hereditarily designed
nourishment which is delivered from cross-rearing plants
alongside controlled fertilization. The seed which is considered
mixture delivers another plant containing properties of both
crossed-plants. These cross-rearing plants are created with
higher efficiency, bug obstruction alongside improved
nourishment. The prime cause of hybrid foods is being handled
as a basic food item that contains such fixings which have been
adjusted by hereditary building.
Agriculture is basically an asset for the state whose greater
portion of the economy belongs to agriculture sector. U.S. has
large concern towards its farmers and agriculture production in
order to enhance its agricultural market around the globe. For
this purpose, the mechanism of the production of hybrid foods
has been induced by the government in order to strengthen the
economy along with enrichment of the U.S. Farmer community.
In order to export and make fastest growth of vegetables and
vegetables, hybrid food farming is a sustainable product that
has ultimate benefit to the state, farmers and final consumer. In
order to produce own fruits and vegetables, U.S. does not have
4. to import them from other countries. Although, it is a strong
economy but agriculture needs to be improvised by induction of
new techniques, i.e. hybrid technique. Due to which production,
sustainability and benefits of hybrid food become important and
essential production.
Convincing Argument for Proposed
Solution
In order to conduct and complete the research, we will conduct
several interviews of growers, various personnel of the
agriculture department who have direct concern to sustainable
hybrid foods production. Likewise, visit the farms including
productive to farms in charge of where we will get to know that
how they take care of hybrid seeds and plants to have
favourable output. As far as theoretical research and knowledge
are concerned, we will consider various agricultural websites,
U.S. department and most important various scholarly articles
through which we can develop interest towards production,
sustainability, and benefits of hybrid foods so that we can
conduct extensive research on this productive and scientific
perspective effectively and efficiently. Likewise, to get
knowledge about hybrid foods we will consider following areas
as well.
· Hybrid Foods
5. · Hybrid Diet
· Optimum Nutrition
· Food Pyramid
· Nutrition Facts
· Balanced Diet
· Nutritional Science
· Food Labels
· Food and Science
· Cross-Breeding
· Benefits of Hybrid Foods
The above-mentioned are certain areas which would help us in
conducting the research efficiently. All above-mentioned areas
would be discussed in detail according to our research policy.
Relevant Support of Scholarly Articles
As we are discussing the policy brief of production,
sustainability, and benefits of hybrid foods. For this purpose,
we have considered secondary research an essential and focused
tool to strengthen our research from all aspects. Secondly, it has
given us proper direction in order to direct our research to a
particular way and would be able to identify problems, issues,
solutions, benefits associated with the production of hybrid
foods effectively and efficiently. Scholarly articles, past
researches, cases, agricultural websites are basically targeted in
order to collect and analyse the data appropriately. Most
importantly, scholarly articles helped a lot in the form of
6. relevant support to complete this research more accurately and
productively. It drove us through important aspects, elements,
benefits, growing methods, care and other matters associated
with production, sustainability and benefits if hybrid foods.
Relevant Support from Interview and Student Survey
To complete this research, we have conducted secondary
research along with interviews and student surveys in order to
get more knowledge about those persons who are directly
associated with this field. It was very beneficial for us to take
that action because to make this research effective, extensive
knowledge was important and necessary.
It was purely relevant support from interview sessions and
student surveys helped us a lot to collect the data in more
appropriate way. In order to describe importance of hybrid
foods, we have conducted extensive research based on which we
have conducted an interview regarding hybrid foods lead the
research concept, i.e. Production, Sustainability and Benefits of
Hybrid Foods. For this purpose, we have chosen a farm manager
in order to ask certain questions regarding production, growth,
and sustainability of hybrid foods. He was responsible to
monitor the hybrid foods production, care, feeding and most
importantly directing farmworkers about hybrid plants care.
There are certain issues have been discussed along with benefits
of hybrid foods. The farm manager was supportive and carries
7. extensive knowledge about hybrid foods and their effective and
efficient production. As far as the purpose of the interview and
student survey is considered, the purpose of this interview with
a farm manager is to find out and learn the mechanism of hybrid
foods production. Secondly, how they play an important role in
national economy as a big exporter. To address and implement
the interview discussion on the paper reflection production,
sustainability and benefits of hybrid foods effectively and
efficiently. A necessary step forward in order to meet those
individuals who rest in field where hybrid foods grow, taken
care and most importantly their selling to the supermarkets
appropriately.
Possible Counterarguments
Half and half produce are made when two exceptional
accumulations of a trademark thing or vegetable, or two specific
sorts of a characteristic thing or vegetable, are crossed with one
another. Precisely when kale is crossed with Brussels builds up,
another vegetable called Kalettes is made. Right when perfect
plants are cross-raised, new groupings are made. A part of the
time this occurs in nature; a bit of the time it occurs on a
habitation or home. Grapefruits are a crossbreed of a pomelo
and a sweet orange. They were crossbred on homes in the
eighteenth century. The Honeycrisp was made under
progressively savvy conditions at the Minnesota Agricultural
Experiment Station's Horticultural Research Centre around
8. 1960.
Despite how a crossbreed ordinary thing or vegetables become,
it isn't hereditarily changed. As per the Non- GMO Project,
GMOs are "plants or creatures that have been naturally worked
with DNA from minor living creatures, pollutions or different
plants and creatures. These exploratory mixes of qualities from
various species can't happen in nature or in conventional
crossbreeding. These are basically the counterarguments we
have faced based on research paradigm are we completing. It is
basically involving in the research policy that to include these
counterarguments in order to analyse those who oppose this
research in their own way. While the course of action of
crossbreed sustenance’s created beginning from the most
punctual stage an increasingly unmistakable blend, GMO
produce doesn't develop the assortment of consequences of the
soil open. 80% of GMOs "are worked for herbicide restriction."
They contain ruinous synthetics that are required to murder
weeds or bugs, in any case there has been little research done on
what these produced mixes do to human success. That is the
clarification GMOs are scrappy. It is necessary policy to take
this counterargument regarding production, sustainability and
benefits if hybrid foods to identify issues, associated risks and
mitigation plans accordingly.
Clear Action Plan
it will be extensive research on ‘‘Production, Sustainability and
9. Benefits of Hybrid Foods’’. Hybrid foods are basically type of
genetically modified food is basically extracted from different
cross-breed plants. Their DNA’s are being altered by using
effective methods of genetic engineering. It has greatly
enhanced our knowledge about genetic engineering and most
importantly the production of hybrid foods and its benefits to
the grower, seller, buyer, and consumer as well. These cross-
rearing plants are created with higher efficiency, bug
obstruction alongside improved nourishment. The prime cause
of hybrid foods is being handled as a basic food item that
contains such fixings which have been adjusted by hereditary
building. In order to conduct and complete the research, we will
conduct several interviews of growers, various personnel of
agriculture department who have direct concern to sustainable
hybrid foods production. Likewise, visit the farms including
productive to farms in charge of where we will get to know that
how they take care of hybrid seeds and plants to have
favourable output.

An annotated bibliography is basically providing a brief
summary of the research we conduct and how the used sources
belong to that research. It is necessary to understand the
importance of annotated bibliography that it would be able to
let the reader a quick round from the sources and get to know
that how much these sources relevant to the research along with
its strength of connection with the research. An annotated
bibliography is usually induced in order to define certain
elements of the sources which make direct connection to
research, i.e. about the reliability of the source, the theme of the
source, and most importantly how we use this specific source to
provide back-up to our research effectively and efficiently. To
explain the contribution of annotated bibliography we consider
Richard Bullock’s field guide to writing in which she
introduced and explain the importance and implementation of
annotated bibliography effectively and efficiently. For this
purpose, we would research on the topic which is given below:
13. Production, Sustainability and Benefits of hybrid Foods
As the nature of the research is secondary and in order to get
deep into this topic, we have considered certain scholarly
articles through which we would be able to understand the
foundations and fundamentals of production, sustainability, and
benefits of hybrid foods. Production. Many of the sources
strongly correlate the relationship between hybrid foods and its
sustainability along with other factors as well. There is a great
concern has been noticed that there is number of benefits
associated with the production of hybrid foods. These benefits
have been discussed in the source with respect to both
consumers and state governments as well. For the sake of
economic excellence and consumer satisfaction, production of
hybrid foods is necessary in order to lift-up certain factors that
become the reason behind the shortage or unnecessary import of
hybrid foods. For this purpose, sources are given below also
address hybrid foods' importance in terms of economy and
consumer satisfaction.
Alok, Choudhary and Allaoui Hamid. "Sustainable Agro-Food
Supply Chain using Two-Stage Hybrid Multi-objective decision-
making approach." Computers and operations research 89
(2018).
Alok and Hamid’s article provides deep insight into the
importance of the production of hybrid foods with the help of
modern and advanced technology. It is basically focused on
14. two-stage hybrid multi-objective decision-making approach
through which we can make agro-food supply chain more
sustainable, effective and efficient. One of the most key parts
impacting the supportability of an agro-sustenance creation
framework is its system structure. An especially testing edge in
this setting is the general degree of impacting markers related to
the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) of reasonableness that should be
considered. Notwithstanding, an amazing piece of these markers
couldn't be completely combined or evaluated by single-step
streamlining issues. This paper introduces a fundamental
creation audit of operational research strategies for the course
of action of conceivable save chains. An epic two-sort out half
and half course of action framework are proposed.

implemented when by proper administration of the growth of
food by using certain approached i.e. transnational, hybrid and
wicked out of which hybrid is most appropriate approach among
others. It is also associated with our research subject as well
through which we would be able to understand the procedures
reflecting production, sustainability, and benefits of hybrid
foods effectively and efficiently. It strongly makes connection
15. to our research theme and advocates its purpose completely.
Barry, Mariam. "Food Productivity Trends from Hybrid Corn."
Statistical Analysis of Patents and Field-Test Data 01 (2016).
Mariam Barry represents in her study that there are emerging
methods of food productivity and elaborates trends from hybrid
corn. Break down we study capability instances of half and half
corn - a basic subdomain of sustenance creation. In this regard,
we would be able to add modern features of technology
regarding improvement in production, sustainability, and
benefits of hybrid foods. There are number foods production
belongs to hybrid technique i.e. fruits, vegetables, etc. Here, we
extract from the sources that hybrid corn is an effective and
efficient method in production of hybrid foods effectively. We
check the yearly pace of yield improvement of crossbreed corn
(assessed as bushel per territory of land) by utilizing the two
data on yields contained in US patent reports for approved
crossbreed corn game plans and on field-test information of a
few cross-breed corn blends performed at US State level. We
have utilized a theory of Moore's law to fit viability glides and
get the presentation improvement rate by isolating time strategy
of mix corn execution for a period covering the most recent
thirty years.

sustainable production. The example we can quote into our
research is hybrid breeding in wheat. The type of technologies
can be used in improving the hybrid wheat seed production
effectively and efficiently. It has direct connection to our
research in terms of hybrid food importance and benefits
because we have a separate section in the research regarding
hybrid food production techniques where this study would
greatly help in completing the segment productively. It has
enhanced the scope of the research purpose significantly.

In order to strengthen our research on production, sustainability
and benefits of hybrid foods, we had to conduct an interview
regarding the research topic. For this purpose, we have
conducted an interview which helped us in getting more
knowledge regarding hybrid foods, its production and what are
the benefits of it. Apart, it also enhances farm knowledge,
agricultural techniques, precautions etc. in order to grow hybrid
foods effectively and efficiently. For this purpose, we reached
‘‘Future Foods Farm, California’’ covered 25-acres of area for
the production of different hybrid foods and vegetables. Future
Food Farms is actually one of biggest local farmer market as
well from where many restaurants and supermarkets are intact
in order to purchase fresh hybrid foods and vegetables available
on daily basis. If we have big local farmer market which has
ultimate purpose is to grow hybrid food, production and
sustainable growth then there is no need to import hybrid foods
and follow the legal laws and duties imposed by other states.
They were responsible to monitor the hybrid foods production,
care, feeding and most importantly directing farmworkers about
19. hybrid plants care (Wright, 2017). There are certain issues have
been discussed along with benefits of hybrid foods. Both
interviewees were supportive and carry extensive knowledge
about hybrid foods and their effective and efficient production.
In order to get to know in-depth, we met Chef Adam Navidi’
and Michael John who administer the future food farms in order
to get a productive outcome from the growth of hybrid
production. In hybrid production, they are responsible to grow
hybrid foods and vegetables i.e. Plumcot, Blood lime,
Broccoflower, Cucamelons, Tayberry, onions, potatoes,
tomatoes, etc. are such prime examples of hybrid production at
future foods farms. During interview they told us that there are
many buyers associates with them who purchase regularly and
contribute to Green Growing Movement of USA in order to help
the local community to reduce the carbon footprint. Most
importantly, all hybrid production is done without using
harmful chemical i.e. Pesticides, Synthetic Nutrients, etc. along
with less usage of water than other normal farm food
production. It was a productive experience for us and enhancing
our knowledge about the effective and efficient production,
sustainability and benefits of hybrid foods.
The purpose of this interview with them is to find out and learn
the mechanism of hybrid foods production. Secondly, how they
play an important role in the national economy as a big
exporter. To address and implement the interview discussion on
20. the paper reflection production, sustainability and benefits of
hybrid foods effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, they
discussed complete mechanism of hybrid foods in such a way
that it went interesting discussion for us. Hybrid foods is
basically type of genetically modified food is basically
extracted from different cross-breed plants. Their DNA’s are
being altered by using effective methods of genetic engineering.
Genetic engineering is a basic tool which we used for variety of
purposes (Plumer, 2015). Hybrid food is a genetically
engineered food which is produced from cross-breeding plant
along with controlled pollination. During interview with the
farm manager, we have analysed that hybrid foods also have a
great contribution to national economy as a major exporter.
Agriculture is basically an asset for the state whose greater
portion of the economy belongs to agriculture sector. U.S. has
large concern towards its farmers and agriculture production in
order to enhance its agricultural market around the globe. For
this purpose, the mechanism of the production of hybrid foods
has been induced by the government in order to strengthen the
economy along with enrichment of the U.S. Farmer community.
In order to export and make fastest growth of vegetables and
vegetables, hybrid food farming is a sustainable product that
has ultimate benefit to the state, farmers and final consumer
(Turner, 2014). In order to produce own fruits and vegetables,
U.S. does not have to import them from other countries (John,
21. 2016). Although, it is a strong economy but agriculture needs to
be improvised by induction of new techniques i.e. hybrid
technique. Due to which production, sustainability and benefits
of hybrid food become important and essential production.
In order to take a grip on the research topic, we also talked to
gardeners, various personnel apart from Adam and John of
agriculture department who have direct concern to sustainable
hybrid foods production. Likewise, visit the future food farms
including productive to farms in charge of where we got to
know that how they take care of hybrid seeds and plants to have
favourable output. Despite, we take help from online sources of
the future food farms and other agricultural and hybrid
production platforms to conduct secondary research and
compare with the interviews in order to make the research
stronger, effective and efficient. Agricultural websites helped a
lot in learning about the topic, U.S. department and most
important various scholarly articles through which we can
develop interest in production, sustainability, and benefits of
hybrid foods so that we can conduct extensive research on this
productive and scientific perspective effectively and efficiently.
Interestingly, interview with John and Adam was more helpful
because those are the individuals who spend much time on the
farms so they gave us more productive knowledge about
production, sustainability, and benefits of hybrid foods.
Likewise, to get knowledge about hybrid foods we will consider
22. following areas as well.
· Hybrid Foods
· Hybrid Diet
· Optimum Nutrition
· Food Pyramid
· Nutrition Facts
· Balanced Diet
· Nutritional Science
· Food Labels
· Food and Science
· Cross-Breeding
· Benefits of Hybrid Foods
Those mentioned above are certain areas that would help us in
conducting the research efficiently. As evidenced by different
scholarly articles like John’s sustainable hybrid production, we
come to know that innovation always contributes and provides
space to do better for the sake of people and state itself. Before
the arrival of the concept of hybrid foods production, it was
necessary for the state even U.S. to import hybrid foods because
they did not have any other choice. It was necessary to fulfill
the demands of marketers as well and most importantly heavy
duties to be paid on imports of these foods. Later, with the
induction of hybrid food production technique our hybrid food
imports are completely transferred to exports and playing a
major role as a contributor to national economy. Luckily, we
23. found relevant persons to this field and associated directly with
the production and supervisors of hybrid farm food production
(Winckler, 1999). By talking to them, we also got familiar with
its contribution to national economy, fulfilling marketing
demands, consumers' satisfaction, taste, sustainability, etc.
Productive, effective and efficient personnel when sitting next
to us, it becomes a blessing and a chance to grab knowledge
from them, so we did.
By contrasting interview discussion, scholarly articles, blogs,
etc. helped greatly in gathering useful information regarding
hybrid foods. Having extensive information from Adam and
John who are directly associated with this field helps us to make
an argument in terms of hybrid foods benefits especially. We
prepared some most authentic, relevant and productive
questions for interviewees in order to gain as much knowledge
about production, sustainability, and benefits of hybrid foods.
Questions play an important role because it helps in extracting
knowledge and get deep insight into the research topic.
Likewise, secondary research also helped a lot in terms of
considering different researches, articles, agricultural websites,
etc. Secondary research was also important because we had to
compare the facts and figures discussed in interview and found
on online platforms. Comparisons provide a contrasting image
due to which we can easily make comparisons and reach the
solution. Here, we make comparisons just to match the facts and
24. figures in order to strengthen the research paradigm which
would be able to enhance our knowledge provide effective and
efficient results.
