As the agriculture sector accelerates toward more resilient systems, the search for climate-smart crops continues to gather pace. Innovation in crop systems is key to unlocking solutions that deliver resilience, productivity, and lower carbon outcomes.
This webinar explores the potential of winter camelina, an oilseed crop advancing through research, innovation, and on-farm trial, as part of a broader push for crop diversification and low-carbon fuel feedstocks.
Planted in the fall and harvested in early summer, camelina provides living cover through the off-season while also being harvested and sold as a cash crop – an uncommon combination that creates a new incentive for farmers to keep soil covered longer.
What we discussed…
- How crop innovation and R&D are supporting more resilient and profitable farming systems
- The role of winter camelina in crop diversification, soil health, and lower-carbon outcomes
- The importance of farmer engagement, partnerships, and on–farm trials in driving adoption
- What lessons from camelina can be applied to broader climate–smart agriculture strategies
