🌱 The Power of Drought-Resistant Crops in Climate-Resilient Farming 🌍
As climate change brings more frequent droughts, drought-resistant crops are essential for stable food supplies and sustainable agriculture. In this video, we explore how innovative crop varieties like Huhan 1516 rice and genetically advanced sunflowers are helping farmers adapt:
🌾 Huhan 1516 Rice: Engineered through marker-assisted selection, this drought- and pest-resistant rice variety shows a 2.2% yield increase in dry conditions, making it ideal for water-scarce regions.
🌻 Drought-Tolerant Sunflowers: Genes like HaGS6D and HaGS7B help manage nitrogen efficiently, supporting sunflower growth even with limited water.
🌾 Community Resilience: By integrating local knowledge and resilient crops, farming communities can better manage drought impacts, supporting sustainable agriculture and food security.
Drought-resistant crops offer a path to a more food-secure and climate-resilient future! 🌍
