For the first time since the 1950s, researchers at the University of Alaska Fairbanks are collaborating with ten farms across the state to map how everyday agricultural actions like clearing land, using mulch, or building high tunnels disrupt frozen ground. As thawing permafrost causes land to sink and turn into swamps, farmers face unprecedented challenges—even within the same field, conditions vary wildly. The project, funded by the National Science Foundation, isn’t about dictating farming methods but empowering growers with tools, field guides, and resources to make informed decisions. Their goal? To help Alaskan farmers adapt to a rapidly changing landscape without losing their land.
