The Dry Farming Seed Directory empowers growers to identify and source high quality crop varieties that have been demonstrated to perform well under dry farmed or minimally-irrigated conditions. This directory will be continually updated as new varieties are recommended and entered. Currently, this directory is focused on the maritime Pacific Northwest of North America.
For a crop variety to be entered into the Dry Farming Seed Directory, it should satisfy the following criteria:
- Performs well in dry farmed or minimally irrigated conditions using organic practices, and evaluation details are openly available.
- Has other notable resilient traits, such as cold or heat tolerance, disease or pest resistance
- Valuable culinary characteristics including flavor, nutrition, and storability
- Seeds are available, commercially or otherwise
