The DART Project: Exploring Crop Diversity & Climate Change in Quebec.

In the DART (Diversity And Rainfall Treatment) research project at McGill University, researchers are exploring how crop diversity can make farms more resilient in the face of climate change across Quebec. Working alongside Regeneration Canada and local farmers, researchers are studying how changes in rainfall patterns impact agriculture—and what we can do to build a more resilient food system.
