Watch the New Documentary “Common Ground”
Soil4Climate, Big Picture Ranch and Area 23a present a hopeful and uplifting story of the pioneers of the Regenerative Movement who are known for producing tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food and working to balance the climate – all while bringing our entire ecosystem back to life. The film investigates the power of regenerative farming systems from large to small-scale farming as the key to unlocking more (and healthier) food to feed America and the world beyond.
We Must Still Define Regenerative Agriculture
Imagine a sandwich that actually made you – and the world – healthier by virtue of making it. This dream is held by hard-nosed ranchers, coastal vegans, corporate types, and hippy homesteaders alike. The term they often use to describe the dream is “regenerative agriculture.” Leo DiCaprio even has a venture capital fund that evokes the term. Surely we can’t all want the same thing for once, right?
Cover Crops and No-till Aren’t Just Good for Soil — They Also Make Farmers More Money, Study Says
Much of the research on regenerative farming practices, such as no-till or cover crops, has looked at the benefits to the environment and the soil. Now a new study finds these farming practices also have economic benefits for farmers.
The New Colonialist Food Economy
How Bill Gates and agribusiness giants are throttling small farmers in Africa and the Global South. Under a pending draft protocol on intellectual property rights, the trade bodies sponsoring the African Continental Free Trade Area seek to lock all 54 African nations into a proprietary and punitive model of food cultivation, one that aims to supplant farmer traditions and practices that have endured on the continent for millennia.
Regenerative Agriculture Is the New Farming Buzzword, but Few Can Agree on What It Means
Sustainable farming movement is gaining popularity in Australia but still lacks a common definition or accreditation system to help consumers make informed choices
Exploring the connections between Agroecology and Regenerative Agriculture
Food security is one of a human being’s most basic needs, and the threat of food insecurity causes primal anxiety. Food insecurity is among the main causes of climate-related migration and, in turn, one of the main causes of the growing insecurity of nations.
Food Sector Making “More Promises Than Progress” on Regenerative Agriculture
A ground-breaking study of 79 global agri-food firms has found that 50 (63%) publicly refer to the potential of regenerative agriculture as a solution to the climate and biodiversity crises. However, of these 50 companies, 64% (32/50) have not put in place any formal quantitative company-wide targets to achieve those ambitions.
Unlocking the True Potential of Vegetables
Want to boost your immune system, increase the nutrient content in your food, improve your mental health and detox your body? Fermented vegetables are for you!
Worried that fermenting is risky? No need! Fermented veggies are actually safer than raw vegetables, because the fermentation process actually kills off any unwanted or dangerous bacteria that may exist on the food prior to fermentation.
Prime, grass fed — bird friendly? Audubon Society label coming to a meat aisle near you
Labels that read “prime” or “grass fed” are likely to catch your eye in the meat aisle. What about “bird friendly?” Beginning this winter, some Minnesota-raised beef will begin featuring a green and white label from the Audubon Society that says just that.
Regenerative Farms vs Organic Farms: What’s the Difference?
In the realm of sustainable agriculture, both regenerative and organic farming practices stand as beacons of environmentally conscious food production. While they share common goals of minimizing harm to ecosystems and promoting healthier food, these approaches diverge in their methodologies and overarching philosophies. Let's delve into the differences between regenerative farms and organic farms:
