Earth:
- #Orbits the #Sun at approximately 67,000 mph (107,000 km/h)
- #Rotates on its axis at up to 1,000 mph (1,600 km/h) at the equator, and
- #Travels with the #solarsystem around the #galaxy at roughly 450,000 mph (720,000 km/h
🔬 Within ROTATES, CREA analysed sweet potato leaves and roots to measure total dietary fibre. This work helps understand the nutritional value of minor root and tuber crops and supports their integration into sustainable European food systems.🌱
