Regenerative agriculture

Regenerative agriculture (Total 100 Credit Scores [CS])

Also coined as agroecology, regenerative farming envisages a new climate-smart horizon in the primary productivity sector that attempts to reduce inputs, emissions and resource utilization with promising production statistics. This neo-adaptive intervention, principally based on circularity and participatory planning, has caught up with the wave of adaptive mitigation and learning in the climate milieu.
