Sorghum proposed as climate-resilient crop for Europe
Original: Sorghum may help European agriculture face climate change
Researchers, including France's agricultural research institute INRAE, report that sorghum could help European farming adapt to climate change. The cereal is drought-tolerant and needs less water than staples like maize and wheat, making it a candidate as heatwaves and water restrictions increasingly hit European harvests.
Why now: Growing concern about how European agriculture will cope with hotter, drier conditions is driving interest in drought-resistant crops.
