There's been a lot of talking around this subject lately, but, what does it really means?
It is well known that for hundreds of years agriculture has been one the industries with the most negative impact over our environment, unfortunately this tends to be all true. Several years ago, a concept of sustainability came by, its main purpose was to invite us into a form of living that could 'sustain' our environment, meaning it to be neutral. But the impact to our world has been so that some have inclined into thinking that for reversing the trend, we have to do more than just sustaining, we have to regenerate. This is where the term regenerative comes from: making things have a positive impact rather than just maintaining it neutral.
To achieve so, you would be surprised of where the industry is seeking its answers, it is incredible but it's all coming back to the origin: nature. When you think about it, that is what agriculture is, plants that thrive into its mature stage for us to harvest and delight. So, is there something that could provide best suitable conditions for this to happen than nature itself? Dennying this would be arguing against billions of years of evolution.
So that is what regenerative agriculture really is, using nature to build healthy environments in which we can collaborate for obtaining concious-wise fresh produce.
