According to Terra Genesis International, the 7 Principles of Regenerative Agriculture are:
1. Work with wholes, not parts
2. Design for non-linear, multi-capital reciprocity
3. Make holistic decisions aimed at specific systems change
4. Express the unique irreplaceable essence of each person, farm and place
5. Continually evolve agro-ecological processes and cultures
6. Connect the farm to its larger agro-ecosystem and bio-region
7. Agriculture shifts the world
Recently, there has been talk about labeling food that is produced in a regenerative manner. But is that a good idea?
Organizational leaders, including HMI’s Executive Director Ann Adams, weigh in on the debate in this fascinating article from Civil Eats. What are your thoughts? Would you like to see food with a Regenerative label in your supermarket?
