We have enough yield to feed the planet already.

"We" in this case is the US (perhaps combined with the Ukraine, Australia & a few other large grain providers).

But that means that much of the worlds population has to rely on food supplies grown elsewhere.

Increasing drought resistance in grain crops could allow African countries to feed themselves, which could decrease political tensions over water supplies.
