322 Nettie Wiebe - We have become monocultural in our fields and minds
Épisode 322
vendredi 6 septembre 2024 • Durée 52:23
A conversation with Nettie Wiebe, organic farmer and long-time small farm activist in Canada and globally, one of the founders of La Via Campesina, part of the IPES food panel, and coauthor of the recent Land Squeeze report. We talk about land purchases and prices. In many places, over 70% of the farmland is controlled by 1% of the farms. This is just one of the many challenges the latest Land Squeeze report of the IPES food panel addresses. We talk about the results of the report and what to do about it, how go get speculative money out of farming and why green grabbing needs to stop.
Land squeeze: one of the biggest issues in regenerative farming is access to land. Why is that? Farmers in the global industrialised north are ageing, and many of them don’t have a next generation taking over the farm; many other people would love to farm and are, in many cases, able, but can never finance the land purchase because land prices and value are completely disconnected. They face competition from ever larger industrial extractive, well financed farms.

321 Eduard Müller - Regenerative education is the answer, whatever the question was
Épisode 321
mardi 3 septembre 2024 • Durée 01:28:39
A conversation with Eduard Müller, founder of University for International Cooperation (UCI) and leading Costa Rica Regenerativa, about regenerative education: what does it mean, and why is it so powerful to focus on educating people who want to learn more about regeneration? Eduard makes a very strong case against trying to convince the people in power, in industry, in chemical companies, in fertile companies, in large ultra-processed food companies, at the UN, etc. He has tried and failed, and he truly believes in on education and unlearning. That is why he started his own university 15 years ago. He started with online education in 1998, focusing on scaling regeneration in Costa Rica and showing the numbers and data behind it to reach the tipping point.

312 Maarten van Dam – How to fund the transition of the first pioneers in regenerative agriculture
Épisode 312
mardi 16 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:09:16
A conversation with Maarten van Dam, founder of Schevichoven Regenerative farm, about numbers when transitioning from conventional to regenerative agriculture and keeping records on inputs, prices, and machinery. Maarten is keeping a lot of records of their pioneering farm transitioning from a mono dairy farm to a diverse agroforestry system.
Remember the Dutch farming protests? What do we miss when we talk about the transition from conventional to regenerative? We miss numbers numbers numbers. Many of the pioneers- rightfully so- didn’t keep good records, on inputs, prices, machinery and, of course, hours. Nobody tracks hours in agriculture. What does it cost per hectare, and what off-take do you need? With a minimum of 50K euro per hectare in the Netherlands, you can transition in about 7 years to a diverse perennial agroforestry system, only counting wholesale prices, counting all your hours, and paying a fair wage. Of course, at Schevichoven they are only in year 4, so all of that has to be proven. But what does it mean for the rest of the 50.000 farmers in the Netherlands? What are the types of regen systems they can apply? We need about 150 billion to transition them. It sounds like a lot, but is doable.
227 Mary Purdy - Why a supplement company launched a flour product
Épisode 227
mardi 20 juin 2023 • Durée 58:00
What if the key to a healthy life lies within the soil beneath our feet? A conversation with Mary Purdy, eco dietician and nutrition and sustainability advisor for Big Bold Health, about the flour business, what it has to do with our gut health, the cousin of buckwheat and much more. Discover how food is medicine and why we must consider soil and farming practices in our quest for well-being.
Mary shares her journey into this space and reveals the fascinating link between the human gut microbiome, soil microbiome, and plant immunity. Together, we explore the potential of regenerative agriculture and its impact on both human health and our planet. Learn about Mary's mission to reduce chronic diseases, healthcare costs, and the importance of supporting BIPOC farmers who have been stewarding the land for centuries.
As we navigate the challenges faced by chefs, food service directors, and procurement teams in embracing local, nutrient-dense ingredients, we'll also discuss the friction within the dietetics community around sustainability definitions and the impact of agrochemicals on human health and the environment. ---------------------------------------------------
226 Karen Rodriguez and Ethan Soloviev – Should we be worried about the big brands and massive food companies getting active in the regenerative movement?
Épisode 226
mardi 13 juin 2023 • Durée 01:03:54
What happens when big brands and massive food companies move into the regenerative agriculture industry? Should we celebrate or worry about this shift? Join us as we explore these questions with Karen Rodriguez, chief operation officer of Kiss the Ground, and Ethan Soloviev, chief innovation officer at HowGood, who recently updated the Regenerative Agriculture Industry Map.
Throughout this enlightening conversation, we examine the potential of regenerative agriculture to create a diverse and sustainable world. Karen and Ethan share their experiences navigating the challenges of working with larger companies and structured organizations, as well as the opportunities for scaling regenerative agriculture practices. We also discuss how global initiatives, such as the World Economic Forum and the One Planet Business for Biodiversity, are helping to drive the regenerative movement forward.
As we reflect on the growth of investment in regeneration and nature-based solutions, we emphasize the importance of collaboration and weaving together the old and new. From examining the potential of regenerative agriculture in the context of global conversations to discussing the timeline for farmers to revitalize their soil, this episode promises to broaden your understanding of the promising future of regenerative agriculture and its potential to heal our planet. Don't miss this insightful conversation with Ethan and Karen! ---------------------------------------------------
225 Yasmine Cathell - Deep nutrition research on a 350 hectare commercial arable farm, everything from counting worms to sap analysis
Épisode 225
mardi 6 juin 2023 • Durée 01:06:37
A conversation with Yasmine Cathell, Nutrition Project Manager of the Soil Heroes Foundation, about her journey into regenerative agriculture, and her MBA studies until her cutting-edge nutrient density research in the south of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, on a large commercial potato, onion, and wheat farm.
What if the secret to better health lies in the nutrient density of the food we eat, and could regenerative agriculture be the key to unlock this potential? Join us as we dive into the fascinating world of nutrient dense food and regenerative agriculture where Jasmine shares her journey in regen ag dating back to 2006 until her groundbreaking nutrient density research in the Netherlands. We discuss how healthy farming practices contribute to healthier soil, produce, gut, and ultimately, healthier people.
Learn about the four-year research project that investigates the influence of different management practices on the nutrient density of crops. We delve into the importance of understanding the health of plants on the farm, as well as what parameters are indicators of nutrient cycling and plant health.
Don't miss this exciting conversation with Jasmine, as we uncover the future of nutrient dense food and its potential impact on public health. ---------------------------------------------------
