Great story with a scientific happy end. Fortunately, he planted the seeds!
In my region, an eco-miller also experiments together with a farmer about ancient grain species.
It's a pity that we need to relearn all, having lost diversity to industrial agriculture. The same for our vegetables and fruits. Imagine the richness of different old tomato breeds we never see in supermarkets. Often need less water.
