Dryland Genetics was founded in 2014 by two professors from Iowa State University and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln who have extensive research experience in plant genetics and phenotyping as well as successful entrepreneurial track records in the ag space. Dryland Genetics’ goal is to take crops already adapted to growing on marginal lands where other crops cannot grow without irrigation water and increase their yields and agronomic performance using genetic and statistical breeding techniques that have previously been successfully applied to major crops such as corn, soybeans, and cotton.
