Exploring the Concept of Regeneration in Agriculture
Regeneration in agriculture involves restoring relationships between humans, plants, trees, animals, and soil to create something that has not existed before. It is about creating a new way of farming and agriculture that is not tied to the past, but rather considers what is new and relevant for the present time and people. This approach goes beyond sustainability and aims to add value and have a net positive impact on the environment, such as not just stopping deforestation, but also increasing the Amazon rainforest, or not only using less water, but also cleaning polluted water and leaving clean drinking water. Regeneration also involves lifting people up and supporting their agency, self-determination, and sovereignty in relation to food, culture, and spirituality, ultimately leading towards a full and meaningful life. This concept can be applied to various aspects of agriculture, such as soils, trees, water, and inputs, and extends beyond food and agriculture to other areas as well.
