🌱Excited to announce our new publication in Soil Biology and Biochemistry! We dive into the role of crop perenniality in shaping the soil microbial community and increasing soil total carbon.

I am glad and grateful for the opportunity to deliver an oral presentation on "Perennial crops shape the soil microbial community and increase soil carbon in the upper soil layer" at the 18th Congress of the European Society for Agronomy in Rennes, France! #ESA2024#Kernza#Soil
It was fun and challenging to pitch my PhD project within only 3 minutes at #RisingSoilStarts science communication competition! ✨I talked how perennial grain crop improves soil micorbes and soil quality. 🎑 Thanks to #WageningenSoilConference for this opportunity!

Look at all the potential benefits of #kernza! Such a versatile way to improve #biodiversity and #soilquality, especially on marginal land 🌱
Plus it creates tasty bread and beer, talk about versatility!
WP3 continues with their effect on rain exclusion on the yield, among other parameters. Interestingly, #kernza yield does not seem to be affected by drought compared to annual #wheat
Sampling soil and plants of Kernza and wheat under drought treatment. Months of rain exclusion make soil extremely hard and dry! I really appreciate all the efforts and help from our technicians and colleagues. It wouldn't be possible to take 160 soil cores without your help!
We are very happy to announce that the spring2022 field campaign was a big success!
Thanks to all the partners helping on site!!
And now let's get back to the lab and microscope to see which micro-and macroorganisms can be found in Kernza
Join our free virtual webinar in partnership with @KSUEntomology on using perennial grain species as border crops on 9/22/21 at 10am CST. We'll discuss joint 3yr study on these systems & the eco-services they provide. #perennialgrains#webinar https://t.co/7Y7EYjHsGv
