drought-tolerant maize

Drought-tolerant maize is a type of corn that has been specially developed to survive and produce well in areas with limited water. These plants have genetic traits that help them use water more efficiently, withstand dry conditions, and maintain yields during drought periods. This innovation supports farmers in regions where water scarcity makes traditional maize difficult to grow, ultimately helping ensure food security and reduce the risk of crop failure during droughts.
