PEFORDEI RESEARCH

Advancing Plant Science and Sustainable Agriculture

PEFORDEI Research is an independent research initiative exploring how plants can improve health and support sustainable farming. We also offer training, online classes, and consultation to make plant science accessible and practical for communities and partners.

Harnessing the Hidden Power of Plants for Health and Sustainability

PEFORDEI Research is a newly established initiative dedicated to exploring and enhancing the potential of plants in food, medicine, and industry.

 

Why plants? Because they are essential to human life, from basic needs (food, clothing, shelter) to advanced uses in medicine and technology. With nearly 400,000 known plant species, their potential remains largely untapped.

 

At the same time, global challenges such as climate change and population growth threaten both crops and natural ecosystems. Plants worldwide face stresses like drought, flooding, salinity, pests, and pathogens, all of which endanger yields and food security.

 

We focus on three main research directions:

  • Plant Secondary Metabolites for Medicine – discovering bioactive compounds as novel drug candidates.
  • Plant Resilience Under Environmental Stress – enhancing tolerance to drought, heat, and salinity without yield penalties.
  • Crop Quality & Biofortification – improving the nutritional and functional value of staple crops to support better human health.

Beyond research, we also share knowledge and expertise through:

  • Research project collaboration

  • Consultation in biopharmaceuticals and higher education

  • Training in plant cultivation techniques

  • Online courses in plant biology, molecular biology, biotechnology, bioprocess, and genetic engineering

Together, these efforts reflect our commitment to advancing plant science while making it practical and accessible for health, agriculture, and education.
