This book explores the crucial transition from conventional to regenerative agricultural practices, focusing on the key drivers and indicators of soil health management. Regenerative agriculture is an approach that aims to restore and enhance soil health, focusing on practices that promote soil fertility, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience. The theme of the book captures the growing recognition of the urgent need for sustainable agricultural systems that prioritize soil health to address environmental challenges, improve food security, and ensure the long-term viability of agricultural practices.
The book covers a wide range of topics related to soil health management in the transition from conventional to regenerative agriculture. It covers the principles and concepts of soil health, the challenges and limitations of conventional agriculture, the assessment of soil health using various indicators, and the importance of cover crops, crop rotation, conservation tillage, nutrient management, and water conservation practices. In addition, the book addresses the role of soil biodiversity, policy frameworks, and scaling up regenerative agriculture, providing practical strategies and case studies.
The book provides farmers, policy makers, researchers, and students with the knowledge and tools to implement sustainable agricultural systems that prioritize soil health and promote the transition to regenerative practices.
