Dutch Farmers Grow Salt-Tolerant Quinoa | Amsterdam News
Description
Dutch farmers are turning salty soil into a quinoa boom—thanks to a quirky crop that thrives where potatoes fail. Inspired by 90s research and bred for Dutch heat and less bitterness, this super-salty-tolerant grain is now grown organically by 12 farmers under Jumbo’s three-year deal. While pricier upfront, it’s poised to pay off as climate change salts the coast—and quinoa’s Andean roots make it the perfect salty-savvy solution.
