REGENERATIVE ORGANIC AGRICULTURE
To be truly regenerative, a system must consider all players in the farm system — from the soil microbiome to the animals to the workers. After all, farmers are the stewards of our lands, and with the power of regenerative organic agriculture, can completely change the direction of our future.
With regenerative organic agriculture, we can rehabilitate soil, respect animal welfare, and improve the lives of farmers. We can sequester carbon, build healthier communities, and reap more nutritious and abundant yields.
What is Regenerative Organic Certified?
Regenerative Organic Certified® is a revolutionary new certification for food, fiber, and personal care ingredients that represents the highest standard for organic agriculture in the world, with stringent requirements for soil health, animal welfare, and social fairness.
Why Regenerative Organic Agriculture?
Regenerative organic farming practices make soil health a priority. Healthier soil grows healthier plants, and healthier plants are more nutritious plants. It is an approach to food and farming systems that
- Moves away from pesticides and artificial fertilizers; towards a holistic management approach.
- Builds topsoil and increases soil biodiversity, leading to healthier foods.
- Aims to draw down carbon from the atmosphere, where we need less of it, to the soil, where we need more.
