@Barn_Evil @Ck27126422 @HemmerleinLee @Dusty3080467325 You can purchase from licensed suppliers, such as alseed.com or mnlcorp.com, or email kernza@landinstitute.org for an updated PDF supplier list as of 2025.

@Ck27126422 @HemmerleinLee @Dusty3080467325 Umm, yeas. You were interested and tried to help me get seeds! You actually alerted your folks on X. I still want seeds but the website changed a secretive donation scam.🤨

I got a lovely DM from this individual telling me that I won money from them. How did this account from Nigeria get this many followers and able to stay active since 2016.

“When I started working here in 2001, these ideas were regarded as radical, even laughable. That is no longer true. Within a human generation, we could feed millions & repair soils that took millennia to form." Read more from @mountainogre in The Guardian: bit.ly/3KNJHqy

Grateful for perennial partnerships like the work with @MTSU to study the potential of Kernza® perennial grain, perennial sorghum, and silflower perennial oilseed for Tennessee agriculture: bit.ly/3XH11R1 @CbasMtsu

Our researchers have gone all in on perennial grain Kernza, the kind of deep-rooted plant that many believe will prove essential for both feeding humanity and meeting the challenges of our changing climate. bit.ly/4ivkygV

Join the IPBGG Journal Club on Sep 30, 4-5 PM, as Khyathi Madduru leads a discussion on “The Perennial Grain Revolution”. We’ll explore: What is the prospect of a perennial grain revolution of agriculture? Athens | Griffin | Tifton | Zoom 243 549 4922. No prereading required!

Over 99% of the energy farmers use to grow corn in the US Midwest comes from fossil fuels in the form of fertilizers, pesticides, & machinery. Read how fields planted with diverse perennial grains offer an alternative future with reduced farming emissions: bit.ly/4pqQANT

What if farming could rebuild and improve soil health rather than degrade it? Perennial grain crops grown in diverse mixtures can ensure that soil stores carbon while supporting abundant food and economic growth for farmers and communities. 🌱Learn more: bit.ly/3Zs2z35

By collaborating with nature instead of working against it, we can develop perennial grains like Kernza® and Baki™ bean to regenerate soils, improve water retention & enhance life above & below ground, balancing food needs with long-term planetary health. bit.ly/3EIKEgy

As erratic weather patterns challenge food production and community livelihoods, perennial grains can offer resilience for farmers as climate instability threatens yields and resource availability. Learn how Kernza® provides adaptation for dryland farming: bit.ly/4pDwW1t

Progress with Kernza® perennial grain and perennial rice shows that perennial grains can be bred, grown, & eaten to sequester carbon, support biodiversity, & protect clean water. Learn more about our 5 decades of progress and our vision for 2075: bit.ly/4oTNoKx

It’s harvest season in Kansas. While much of the state’s 300 million bushels of wheat are already in, another grain — Kernza — is quietly being harvested in select areas where it’s taken root. kmuw.org/podcast/flyove…

As we approach our 50th anniversary in 2026, we are taking stock of what has grown from decades of research, collaboration, and commitment into a perennial future. Read the 2025 President's Letter to learn more and join this movement today: bit.ly/4oTNoKx

As brewers and distillers are showing interest in utilizing Kernza grain for beer, ARS researchers and industry stakeholders are working to analyze the brewing and distilling properties of the perennial grain. Beer enthusiasts may soon raise a glass to an entirely new wheatgrass bred for grain production -- while serving up the future in agriculture! loom.ly/UOP-qCE

@USDA_ARS Go Kernza - so delicious in beers and spirits! Thank you for this critical industry research.

The public is invited to the Hastings Kernza® Field Day on Aug. 14 to explore Kernza, a perennial grain that offers a combination of environmental and agricultural benefits. Registration is required for this free, in-person field day. #MNAg 🔗 mda.state.mn.us/perennials-wat…

New small batch beer ALERT!! Trappist Table Beer drops today, amazing and rare beer we made with Kernza. #beer #kernza #brewery #craftbeer #drinklocal

Join @UWMadisonCALS for their Forage & Cover Crops Field Day on 7/15 to learn about management strategies in Kernza, soil health, crop breeding, and more. 🔗: cropsandsoils.extension.wisc.edu/events/forage-…
