Building Up Yields From the Very Start
A smart farmer is always attentive to the environmental conditions in his fields. Poland is increasingly affected by droughts and high temperatures during the growing season, and climate change is making the situation even more extreme. This becomes especially critical on light soils that do not retain water well. To help make the best use of resources in the face of a changing climate, Krzysztof is testing new drought tolerance corn varieties as well as select sugar beet varieties that have resistance to diseases and pests.
