Regenerative agriculture is the production of a product from the land while improving the health of the resource by:
- building carbon soil biological activity
- improving soil structure, water holding capacity and water use efficiency
- improving nutrient cycling
- increasing pasture productivity
- perennial grasses and importance for land health
- grazing management to improve plant growth and soil health
- measuring feed/forage and plan to match stocking rate to carrying capacity
- methods to monitor pasture and soil health.
Presenter
Presenter on the day will be Judi Earl, Pasture Ecologist.
