Deep Seed - Regenerative Agriculture Rewind #2 - Transitioning to regenerative agriculture [Antony Pearce]
In this special rewind episode of the Deep Seed Podcast, we revisit an inspiring conversation with Anthony Pearce, a dedicated regenerative farmer from the UK. Anthony shares his journey from conventional farming to embracing regenerative practices, talking us through the challenges and rewards of transitioning to a farming system that prioritizes soil health, biodiversity, and resilience.
We explore:
• What it’s like for farmers to shift from conventional methods to regenerative agriculture.
• The farm economics of regenerative practices: balancing yields, cutting input costs, and leveraging carbon credits.
• The role of incentives, resilience against extreme weather, and overcoming the often-overlooked social pressures farmers face during this transformation.
• Why regenerative agriculture appeals to a new generation of farmers—and how it’s reshaping the future of farming.
Anthony also provides fascinating insights into the tools of regenerative farming, like strip-till drilling, and explains how minimizing soil disturbance can reduce carbon emissions, improve soil fertility, and create healthier, more productive ecosystems.
If you’ve ever wondered why regenerative agriculture is crucial for our food systems and the environment—or why some say we only have “50 harvests left”—this episode is packed with powerful answers.
Tune in to uncover how farming that works with nature can deliver nutritious food while securing a better future for our planet.
