More than half of the world’s agricultural land is degraded and, according to the World Economic Forum, ‘within 50 years, there may not be enough soil left to feed the world’.
But this doesn’t have to be the end of the story.
In this episode of the Nature-Based Solutions takeover, we explore how regenerative agriculture can bring our soil back to life, improve water absorbency and improve biodiversity, while still feeding the world.
In this two-part episode, Nicky and Alex first speak to New Foundation Farms’ Clare Hill and Savills’ Tom Cackett about the tangible positive impact regenerative farming is having on farms across the UK. Meanwhile, in part two, we hear from Harry Farnsworth of Rabobank and Annie Leeson of Agri Carbon, on the science of soil testing and the investment opportunities the sector holds.
