How researchers are helping farmers weather droughts!

Naomi Robert is leading efforts to help farmers adapt to drought conditions through innovative dry farming techniques. Partnering with the Dry Farming Collaborative at Oregon State University, KPU researchers are working to optimize water retention in soil and cultivate drought-tolerant crops. Dry farming, which relies on minimal or no irrigation, is particularly suited to the Pacific Northwest’s climate.
