Regenerative Agriculture: What About It

Regenerative agriculture holds the potential to fundamentally reshape our food systems—making them more resilient, sustainable, and adaptive in the face of climate change. Rooted in outcomes such as improved soil health, increased biodiversity, and meaningful climate action, it brings together a range of practices including minimal tilling, cover cropping, crop rotation, and diversification to foster thriving ecosystems. 

But realizing this potential means looking beyond the field. It requires systemic change—a shift in how we think about, organize, and engage with the entire food system. Collaboration across and beyond value chains is essential, and that starts with each of us reflecting on the role we can play in the transition. 

This interactive session will offer real-world examples, fresh insights, and a space for open dialogue. Together, we’ll explore both the promise and the practicalities of regenerative agriculture, and consider how we can each contribute to a more regenerative future. The session is part of the Regenerative Innovation Portfolio, a collaboration between EIT Food, Foodvalley and Food Innovation Hub Europe. Join us to be part of the conversation!
