Summary
On the mini-episode this week, I focus on why we should develop regenerative agriculture, how it is different, and why it is important. In the past 10 or 12 years, a lot of conversation has been had on sustainable agriculture. In this episode, I explore what it is that we want to sustain, why regeneration is important, and how regenerative farming systems impact the bottom line in a way that sustainability cannot.

| 0:00.0 | Hi friends. I'm John Kemp hosting this podcast. I am passionate about developing regenerative |
| 0:06.1 | agriculture systems that improve soil health, produce crops that are completely resistant to diseases |
| 0:11.8 | and insects, and produce fruit of such an exceptional quality that we can have a legitimate |
| 0:16.9 | conversation about growing food as medicine. I've discovered that there are many people |
| 0:22.2 | with incredible knowledge and information about soil and plant systems and how to develop |
| 0:27.7 | regenerative agriculture systems. However, much of this knowledge and this information is scattered. |
| 0:33.4 | It's found all over the place. Some of it has been published in peer-reviewed publications, but there are many incredible |
| 0:39.8 | stories and a lot of knowledge that has not been published, and that hasn't been shared with |
| 0:44.1 | many people. |
| 0:44.7 | I started advancing eco-agriculture in 2006 to bring this knowledge together in a more coherent |

| 1:09.8 | To help achieve this goal, I want to share the knowledge that we have learned in the last decade |
| 1:15.6 | and make it available to everyone. |
| 1:17.6 | While we have developed products at AEA that embody the principles of regenerative agriculture systems |
| 1:22.6 | and make them easier for growers to apply, this knowledge and these principles can be applied anywhere. |
| 1:28.3 | And when they are applied properly, they will always increase farm profitability and resilience |
| 1:34.3 | to climate stress. If you have any questions, suggestions, comments, or ideas, topics that you would |
