ICRISAT Presents Pivotal Research for Regenerating the Drylands
As the world confronts the twin crises of climate change and land degradation, a silent revolution is taking root beneath our feet. A groundbreaking publication by scientists at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) launched at CGIAR Science Week in Nairobi, unveils a powerful new ally in the quest for sustainable agriculture: microbes.
Titled “Microbial Solutions for Advancing Nature-Positive and Regenerative Agriculture in Drylands,” the compendium based on ICRISAT’s decades of research offers next-generation research and practical innovations using beneficial microorganisms to restore soil health, boost crop yields, and drastically cut dependence on chemical inputs in dryland farming systems.
