'To feed the world, we need a reliable harvest. And yet, conventional grain crops in Britain have seen yields fall by 35-40% this season'

These conventional crops reflect wide-scale monocultures of grain developed for a specific, market-driven system, now dominating the majority of the British arable landscape. However, the limitations of these monocultures are increasingly clear. With little resilience to external factors - climate, soil conditions, weeds - they rely heavily on the use of herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilisers. But as the climate becomes more extreme and harder to predict, even the use of chemical inputs fails to secure a reliable harvest.

The solution? Heritage grains. Their genetic diversity provides a natural tool for climate resilience, as each grain variety can tolerate conditions specific to its local environment. They can therefore improve food security, while also helping the recovery of our soils and biodiversity.

Our recent article, by the newly established Heritage Grain Trust, highlights the role of these grains in the transition to sustainable food systems. Head over to our website for more info 🌾
