Some farmers are looking toward older practices to improve the quality of meat they produce, boost soil health and help mitigate climate change. Peter Greig and his wife Henri have been working on this land for the last three decades. Peter believes modern, intensive farming destroys the delicate balance of well-fertilized soil, good quality grass, and nutrient-rich meat. Although regenerative farming has its challenges, Peter enjoyed the success of regenerative agriculture and expanded his business to work with around 40 family farms in the area. He focuses on encouraging “young blood” on these family farms so they may “put into action the wisdom handed down from their grandparents.” Read more in this article from the BBC.
Our research shows that a shift to regenerative agriculture will provide a net reduction of 66% to 77% of greenhouse gas emissions. The nature crisis and the crisis in health, and wellbeing and a green recovery following the pandemic, means that the whole of the farming system really does need to take up this challenge.”
