Recorded Virtual Field Tour September 9, 2020

In 2020, we expanded our dry bean variety trials (sponsored by The Dry Farming Institute) to include four new Phaseolus vulgaris (common bean) varieties, as well as several Phaseolus acutifolius (tepary bean) varieties, a drought-tolerant species that originates from the southwestern United States / Northern Mexico region. In this video, we highlighted our tepary bean variety trial and the promise of growing tepary beans in the Pacific Northwest, as well as ongoing breeding projects involving both legume species, and a general discussion on the pros and cons of irrigating vs. dry farming dry beans.
