Ecological approach to farming that enables landscapes to renew themselves.
A long time ago human civilization invented farming. To sustain population growth agricultural production systems shifted to simplified agroecosystems dominated by monocultures, raising livestock in containment and extensive use of tillage. In the absence of biodiversity and ecosystem services, simplified ecosystems required heavy reliance on inorganic fertilizers, synthetic herbicides, fungicides and insecticides to maintain sustainable output.
Challenged by loss of biodiversity, degradation of soil, andincrease in weed, disease, and pest pressure many farmers globally joined the regenerative farming movement. The movement happening unseen under the radar screen of agricultural industry expanded from several to thousands of farms across the planet. Transcending best pest management practices while rebuilding natural resources of agroecosystems profitably.
Together with innovative producers and partner organizations, weare in service to accelerate the transition to ecologically intensified agricultural production, while regenerating soil health and designing functional plant communities. Relying on a unified system of regenerative farming principles we strive to maintain energy flows between plants and soil biology that is critical to overall agroecosystem resilience.
