This talk will explore Regenerative Agriculture in its diversity and discuss the need to “think outside the box” of an industrial mind set when dealing with complex biological systems and processes. It will touch on the “collateral benefits” of a Carbon Sequestration Strategy based on shifting to Regenerative Agricultural systems. It will also explore the difference between optimizing system performance vs maximizing specific outputs.
