For example, where one variety might be susceptible to a particular disease, the other varieties may not be affected and the harvest survives (unlike with a monoculture). Over time, the wheat population adapts to the land and weather, with the most successful varieties thriving. Heritage varieties have deeper root systems so they can extract nutrients from deeper in the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reintroduces biodiversity to agriculture through growing a number of wheat varieties, to move away from the current monoculture of single varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt could take several years to fine tune a blend of wheat for a specific environment. The guiding principle is that “chaos” wheat is better equipped to deal with any chaotic climate events it may encounter. The Bread Lab coined this term “chaos wheat” to describe maslins as presenting “genetic chaos in a field” (Stephen Jones, former Bread Lab director). This technique of growing multiple varieties as an insurance policy is nothing new, and has been employed by farmers over the centuries to help them deal with uncertainties from climate and disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Resilience Blend flour is milled from a variety of populations, including Millers Choice and Torth y Tir, all farmed organically by a group of UK farmers (currently including Ampney Brook, Abbey Home Farm, Goodwood Estate, Lower Dean Farm, and Linley Estate).
