Nutrition
As the global population balloons and our planet faces unpredictable climate extremes, our environment and natural resources are increasingly strained while we race to provide sufficient food and fuel for the masses. Additionally, changing climate conditions can be unpredictable and damaging to crops.
Regenerative agriculture is vital in combating climate change and providing affordable, accessible nutritious food to feed our growing world.

More About Regenerative Agriculture & Nutrition
-
Regenerative agriculture can benefit the health of both people and planet, but the challenges are complex. Climate Farmers’ Arlene Barclay explores how nature and farming can - and should - coincide.

In regenerative agriculture efforts are made to reduce disturbance and nurture the soil biology. Techniques like no-till or low-till farming, the use of cover crops, crop rotation, and many more all support the life of the soil. These practices have been shown to increase soil organic matter, improve water holding capacity, and reduce soil water evaporation. This helps reduce soil erosion and, in time, soil fertility recovers where depleted.

Several independent comparisons indicate regenerative farming practices enhance the nutritional profiles of crops and livestock.
