Intermediate wheatgrass as a dual use crop for grain and grazing
Read about our involvement at Climate Week NYC 2025 – Securing a sustainable future with perennial grains.
Dr. Lee DeHaan, Lead Scientist of the Kernza Domestication Program at The Land Institute, joined WORT 89.9FM in Madison, WI to discuss the timeline and process behind perennial grain breeding. In this radio feature, he joins host Douglas Haynes to provide an overview on Kernza, agricultural sustainability, and perennial polyculture. Also joining the program is Erica Schoenberger, a graduate student in Agroecology at UW-Madison, who studies nutrient management for Kernza as part of a research lab led by research collaborator Dr. Valentin Picasso.
