What is Regenerative Agriculture?
In January 2017, TGI launched a creative commons-licensed, open global discussion on the principles, practices, and evolving definition of Regenerative Agriculture: www.regenerativeagriculturedefinition.com
The term “Regenerative Agriculture” has recently experienced a meteoric rise in public interest, through discussion and promotion by both corporate and non-profit entities. This explosion of excitement and engagement has great, positive eco-social potential for individuals, farms and businesses. However, some uses over-simplify, banalize, or fragment Regenerative Agriculture, instead of engaging with it as a whole and viable discipline.
Levels of regenerative agriculture
Read our recently published whitepaper on regenerative agriculture. This white paper is intended to expand and uplift global conversation and action surrounding Regenerative Agriculture.
We aim to support practitioners, organizations, decision-makers and investors to radically transform Earth’s agriculture as a step on the path to an ecosystemically vibrant, socially equitable, culturally diverse, and spiritually meaningful global system of regenerative potential.
