Investigate farmers\u2019 traditional practices for sustainability and climate resilience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join an exciting collaborative research project on traditional grain mixtures funded by the Rockefeller Foundation\u2019s Periodic Table of Food Initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our research explores the potential benefits of a time-tested practice that has been displaced by monocultures in most of the world but continues to sustain communities in rural Ethiopia. Ethiopian farmers\u2019 knowledge and practice hold promise to enhance food security and climate resilience \u2014 both locally and globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
