Kernza® Harvest 2022

Here are some images from the first day of the 2022 Kernza® (Intermediate Wheatgrass) harvest in Minnesota.

This field was planted on September 5, 2020, so this is the second grain harvest coming off of this field.

Kernza® is a perennial, meaning it is planted once and it can be harvested multiple times. The best practice for Kernza® is to harvest it for three years before rotating to another crop.
