Cook the farro: In a pot, combine farro, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain any excess water.
Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook salmon skin-side down for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
In a large bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olive oil, lemon juice, and feta cheese. Toss gently to combine.
Divide the cooked farro between two bowls. Top with the vegetable mixture and a salmon fillet. Garnish with fresh dill.
