About : Discover the inspiring future of sustainable farming

Current mainstream farming methods are resulting in the loss of fertile soil and biodiversity, meaning that the world could run out of topsoil in about 60 years.

On this two-week course from EIT Food, you’ll learn what regenerative agriculture involves, why it’s crucial for the future of farming, and how to implement your own transition to the regenerative model.

Learn the fundamentals and benefits of regenerative agriculture

From soil health and biodiversity to farmer livelihoods, there are many benefits to sustainable and regenerative farming.

This course will guide you through the key principles of regenerative agriculture, the benefits of different farming methods, and how the regenerative model can help to reduce the environmental impact of farm practices.

Explore the policies and designs needed to transition supply chains

Reports from leading organisations state the fundamental importance of transitioning to more regenerative agriculture methods if Europe is to meet its climate change targets, food security needs, and protect our farmland.

You’ll look at the regenerative model and how it can be implemented to reverse rural abandonment by making farms profitable. You’ll also examine the responsibilities of both corporations and consumers, as well as the EU policies that aim to help move the industry towards a sustainable future.
