Introducing Kernza®: The Game-Changing Grain

Kernza isn't just any grain – it's a sustainable superstar! Developed over two decades by @thelandinstitute, this perennial wonder is reshaping agriculture. Here's why it's causing a stir:

It regrows year after year – unlike crops like wheat, which must be replanted annually- Kernza saves farmers time and money

It’s drought-resistant, with roots extending 10 feet or more into the soil

It's a whole grain high in protein and antioxidants, and has 8x the dietary fiber of traditional wheat

At Michael Fields Agricultural Institute, we're proud to showcase Kernza's potential in resilient agriculture. We've been a Kernza demonstration site since 2020 and continue to champion its benefits for sustainable farming practices.
