Partners in Austria show the Kernza® perennial grain crops have a more diverse microbiome below ground in the soil than annual crops. More diversity could mean healthier, more productive soils.🇦🇹
Perennial wheat offers a more diverse microbiome and has a significantly lower impact on soil and environment, in contrast to annual plants.

NO3− leaching was an order of magnitude lower in intermediate wheatgrass which produces Kernza perennial grain compared to annual wheat.
Ever heard of perennial grains🌾? Pumped to share this new #OpenAccess paper bit.ly/3eIJxRd in @STOTEN_journal exploring N fertilizer use efficiency in annual wheat vs. perennial intermediate wheatgrass 🙏collaborators @DuncanMenge @crews1859 @Vico_Lab
