this page, which comes from the very interesting website of\u00a0<strong>Regeneration International \u2013 Cool the Planet, Feed the World\u00a0<\/strong>at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/regenerationinternational.org\/\">https:\/\/regenerationinternational.org\/<\/a>\u00a0. I will also explain how Bio-Plant and Pro-Plant can help countries when used in regenerative farming.<\/h5><h5>\u00a0<\/h5><h5><strong>1.\u00a0 Introduction: Regenerative Agriculture: The Climate-Smart Imperative<\/strong><\/h5><h5>The reality of global climate change mandates an urgent paradigm shift in how we farm. <strong>Regenerative Agriculture<\/strong> is the system of farming principles that offers the solution: it is a methodology designed to not only sustain the land but to actively <strong>reverse climate change<\/strong> by building soil health and restoring degraded biodiversity. This approach results in profound benefits: increased yields, resilience to climate instability, and enhanced ecosystem services.<\/h5><h5>The world cannot afford to continue with industrial chemical agriculture, which is a major contributor to global warming, responsible for high levels of greenhouse gas emissions, and the decimation of fertile topsoil. Experts confirm that by switching to regenerative organic practices, we have the potential to sequester <strong>more than 100% of current annual CO2 emissions.<\/strong><\/h5><h5><strong>2.\u00a0 Bio-Plant and Pro-Plant: Accelerating Soil Regeneration and Climate Action<\/strong><\/h5><h5><strong>a)\u00a0 Bio-Plant and Pro-Plant are the microbial powerhouses that immediately accelerate the core principles of climate-smart, regenerative agriculture.<\/strong> They provide the essential biological catalyst for every key regenerative practice:<\/h5><ul><li><h5><strong>Carbon Drawdown:<\/strong> <strong>Bio-Plant<\/strong> is the indispensable ingredient for making <strong>rich compost<\/strong>, which is the single best way to restore the soil&#8217;s microbial life and enable the continuous, massive drawdown of atmospheric $CO_2$ into stable soil carbon stocks.<\/h5><\/li><li><h5><strong>Restoring Soil Microbial Life:<\/strong> The bio-fertilisers restore the vital microbial life and fertility that chemical agriculture has destroyed. This biological revitalization is the key to increasing <strong>soil organic matter<\/strong>, which enhances the soil&#8217;s capacity to hold water, regulate temperature, and continuously cycle nutrients.<\/h5><\/li><li><h5><strong>Integration and Versatility:<\/strong> Farmers can seamlessly use <strong>Bio-Plant and Pro-Plant<\/strong> within all climate-smart techniques\u2014from cover cropping and companion planting to mulching\u2014to reduce soil temperature, keep moisture in the soil, and ensure maximum biological efficiency as the land heals.<\/h5><\/li><\/ul><h5><strong>By applying Bio-Plant and Pro-Plant, farmers directly participate in the global movement to stabilize the climate, revitalize local economies, and ensure the long-term food security of humanity.<\/strong><\/h5><h5><strong>3.\u00a0 Organic Farming Provides a Solution to Climate Change<\/strong><\/h5><h5>Regenerative, climate-smart organic agriculture could actually help save the planet from climate devastation. As the reality of global climate change continues to sink in, scientists, activists, and lawmakers all across the world are working to find new ways to fight back against greenhouse gas emissions before it is too late.<\/h5><h5>Regenerative Agriculture describes farming and grazing practices which, among other benefits, reverse climate change by rebuilding soil organic matter and by restoring degraded soil biodiversity \u2013 resulting in both carbon draw-down from the atmosphere and in improving the water cycle.<\/h5><h5>\u201cRegenerative Agriculture is a system of farming principles and practices that increases biodiversity, enriches soils, improves watersheds, and enhances ecosystem services. It aims to capture carbon in the soil and aboveground biomass (plants), reversing current global trends of atmospheric accumulation and climate change. At the same time, it offers increased yields, resilience to climate instability, and higher health and vitality for farming and ranching communities.\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.terra-genesis.com\/\">www.terra-genesis.com<\/a><\/h5><h5>This video explains briefly what\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=i0V2xzEw44Y\">Climate-Smart agriculture<\/a>\u00a0is.<\/h5><h5>Organic farming can remove the excess Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere by drawing it down into the soil. In contrast, industrial (chemical) agriculture has the opposite effect and contributes to climate change by sending carbon into the atmosphere. By switching to simple, regenerative, organic farming practices, mankind could sequester more than 100% of current annual CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0emissions.<\/h5><h5>How serious is the situation regarding the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere? This article called\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/nymag.com\/intelligencer\/2018\/10\/un-says-climate-genocide-coming-but-its-worse-than-that.html?utm_campaign=nym&amp;utm_medium=s1&amp;utm_source=fb\"><em>UN Says Climate Genocide Is Coming. It\u2019s Actually Worse Than That<\/em><strong>.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0gives a good idea of the seriousness and is based on a report called\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/report\/sr15\/\">Global Warming Of 1.5 \u00b0C<\/a>\u00a0made in October 2018 by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change of the United Nations.<\/h5><h5>Organic farming techniques, such as restoring the soil\u2019s microbial life with compost; growing cover crops to keep the soil covered between cash crops and to increase the soil\u2019s organic matter; growing companion crops; and mulching the soil to keep it covered; all keep the soil covered and regenerate the soil\u2019s microbial life and fertility. These techniques reduce the temperature of the soil and enable the soil to remove many tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere continuously.<\/h5><h5><strong>4.\u00a0 How Does Bio-Plant Fit In?<\/strong><\/h5><h5>Bio-Plant fits into climate-smart, regenerative agriculture because farmers can use it in all of the climate-smart practices above. It makes rich compost which restores the soil\u2019s microbial life and thereby enables the soil to draw down more and more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Bio-Plant can also be used in organic farming techniques to cover the soil, to reduce the soil\u2019s temperature, and to keep moisture in the soil. See the section below called\u00a0<strong>A Global Shift to Regenerative Agriculture Can:\u00a0<\/strong>for some of the benefits of using Bio-Plant throughout a country in climate-smart, regenerative agriculture.<\/h5><h5><strong>5.\u00a0 Why is Regenerative Agriculture Needed?<\/strong><\/h5><h5>Industrial chemical agriculture is a major contributor to global warming. In this video interview,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xv9UuP_5OXA\">The Industrial Agricultural System is Limiting Food Access and Driving Climate Change<\/a>, Kirtana Chandraeskaran of Friends of the Earth International explains why the UN Conference on World Food Security in 2016 stopped short of recognizing that the industrial food sector is the greatest agricultural contributor to climate change. In short, it is because of vested interests and effective persuasion.<\/h5><h5>The loss of the world\u2019s fertile soil and biodiversity, along with the loss of indigenous seeds and knowledge, poses a mortal threat to mankind\u2019s future survival. According to soil scientists at the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, at current rates of soil destruction (i.e. decarbonization, erosion, desertification, chemical pollution), within 60 years we will not only suffer serious damage to public health due to qualitatively degraded food supply characterized by diminished nutrition and loss of essential trace minerals, but we will also literally no longer have enough arable topsoil to feed ourselves.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=65usnzkhiR0\">George Monbiot: \u201cWe have sixty years of harvest left\u201d<\/a><\/h5><h5>Without protecting and regenerating the soil on our 4 billion acres of cultivated farmland, 8 billion acres of pastureland, and 10 billion acres of forest land, it will be impossible to feed the world, keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius, or halt the loss of biodiversity.<\/h5><h5><strong>6.\u00a0 How Does Regenerative Agriculture Work?<\/strong><\/h5><h5>The key to regenerative agriculture is that it not only does no harm to the land but also improves it, using technologies that regenerate and revitalize the soil and the environment. Regenerative agriculture leads to healthy soil, capable of producing high quality, nutrient-dense food while simultaneously improving, rather than degrading land, and ultimately leading to productive farms and healthy communities and economies. It is dynamic and holistic, incorporating permaculture and organic farming practices, including conservation tillage, cover crops, crop rotation, composting, mobile animal shelters, and pasture cropping, to increase food production, farmers\u2019 income, and especially, topsoil.<\/h5><h5><strong>7.\u00a0 A Sprinkle of Compost Helps Rangeland Lock Up Carbon <\/strong><em>by Carolyn Lochhead<\/em><\/h5><h5><a href=\"http:\/\/artemisthai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/A-Sprinkle-Of-Compost-Helps-Rangeland-Lock-Up-Carbon.pdf\">A Sprinkle Of Compost Helps Rangeland Lock Up Carbon<\/a><\/h5><h5>The article is about a compost experiment that began in 20017 on a Marin County ranch in the USA, and which uncovered a disarmingly simple and benign way to remove carbon dioxide from the air, namely by spreading compost on degraded grazing land soil.

We\u2019ll start with the truth behind those nice clean rows of tilled soil.<\/h5><h5>We often see tilled soil and think, \u201cFarming looks kinda nice in those neat rows\u201d and we may have been told that there are benefits to tilling like decreasing weeds or loosening the soil or increasing aeration. However, there are serious downsides to tillage that wreak havoc on the entire soil ecosystem, and reduce its carbon storage and its ability to regenerate itself.<\/h5><h5><strong>11.\u00a0 No-Till<\/strong><br \/>This means that the farmer has left the prior crop\u2019s residue and\/or the mass of plants on the soil surface, along with the roots still in the ground, and planted the new crop directly into the soil without tilling.<\/h5><ul><li><h5>Protects mycorrhizal fungi and the entire soil ecosystem<\/h5><\/li><li><h5>Increases and protects soil aggregates<\/h5><\/li><li><h5>Increases water retention and infiltration<\/h5><\/li><li><h5>Reduces erosion<\/h5><\/li><li><h5>Feeds microbial communities and life in the soil (more soil biodiversity means greater biodiversity above ground)<\/h5><\/li><li><h5>Allows more carbon to stay in the soil through reduced<\/h5><\/li><\/ul><h5><strong>12.\u00a0 Tilling<\/strong><br \/>Is the process of turning over and breaking up the soil.<\/h5><ul><li><h5>Kills and destroys critical mycorrhizal fungal networks.

Seeing miles of bare soil is a common occurrence in the modern era. Whether driving down the road or flying in a plane, we often experience bare fields as far as the eye can see. We think of it as \u201cNormal\u201d because it\u2019s been done regularly for so many years, but bare soil is not normal. Nature never designed itself to be tilled and left to burn in the sun. The plants that cover the ground are meant to be there to protect, build, and nourish the living soil. Think about your skin as an example. How does it feel when it is exposed to the hot sun after being scrapped or cut open? The soil did not evolve to be exposed. Using Cover Crops, in combination with other regenerative practices, creates conditions where soils can regenerate themselves instead of eroding and\/or desertifying.<\/h5><h5><strong>13.\u00a0 Bare Soil:<\/strong><\/h5><h5>Increases water and wind erosion. Currently, we lose 4 tons of topsoil per acre per agricultural land.<\/h5><h5>Allows for the burn-off of soil carbon through heat, oxidation, and increased activity of bacterial communities.<\/h5><h5>Destroys soil aggregates. Exposed aggregates are fragile and get pulverized by raindrops. This creates a hardened, sealed soil surface that reduces water infiltration and increases runoff and erosion.<\/h5><h5>Latent heat\/heat island effect: Bare soil can get extremely hot, not only burning the soil life on the micro scale but can create a heat island effect on the macro scale changing the small water cycle so that rains are less frequent.<\/h5><h5>Bare soil reduces infiltration rates of water, this means that rainfall is less effective at restoring soil moisture and recharging underground water supplies.<\/h5><h5><strong>14.\u00a0 Cover Crops:<\/strong><\/h5><h5>Reduce water and wind erosion (if the soil has above-ground protection and the root biomass is present, it is far less susceptible to erosion).<\/h5><h5>Shade the soil from direct sun, keeping soil temperatures down which protects carbon-filled soil aggregates and the soil life that accompanies them<\/h5><h5>Protect soil from raindrops. When rain falls on cover crops, the speed of the droplets is slowed down and dispersed, allowing water to gently filter into the soil.<\/h5><h5>Photosynthesize and pump carbon into the ground to share with soil organisms \u2013 building soil organic matter and helping reverse climate change.<\/h5><h5>Reduce heat island effect and can help repair small water cycles by increasing beneficial evapotranspiration processes. This means more frequent rainfall and more, \u201ceffective rainfall\u201d, increases soil moisture and restoration of aboveground and underground water supplies.<\/h5><h5>Increase water infiltration rates and actually decrease evaporation(which is contrary to what most people are taught)<\/h5><h5>Sadly, we haven\u2019t even scratched the surface. But, there is hope when we go beyond degeneration, beyond sustainability, and look through a new lens of regeneration.
