Agriculture's environmental impact is severe, with agricultural runoff leading to degraded water quality and significant soil loss in the U.S. Furthermore, farming contributes 31% of human greenhouse gas emissions. Kelsey Timmerman's journey reveals alternative farming methods that regenerate soil and sequester carbon, demonstrating that traditional practices combined with modern science can yield profitable and sustainable outcomes. He emphasizes a systems thinking approach that considers the complexity of nature and proposes that regenerative agriculture can heal the land and move away from debt-driven industrial practices.
Agricultural runoff is the leading cause of degraded water quality in rivers and streams. Today's farming practices lead to 1.70 billion tons of U.S. topsoil annually.
Kelsey Timmerman embarked on a global journey to find farmers proving there's a better way to farm, discovering regenerative practices that build soil and sequester carbon.
Kelsey's approach is rooted in systems thinking, connecting everything from chloroplasts to mycorrhizal fungi, ensuring a holistic approach to agriculture.
Regenerative farming practices offer a profitable alternative that heals the land and prioritizes nature's complexity over simplified profit margins.
