Regenerative Agriculture workshop - presented as part of the 2021 Leaky Landscapes symposium
Regenerative agriculture has been at the forefront of the development of systems and tools to restore water-availability and soil health of landscapes - seeking techniques that require reading how ecosystems and landscapes function and working with natural processes to repair them. This workshop will showcase exemplary properties and projects that have undertaken rehydration and restoration works in production settings. How can regenerative agriculture be a meaningful part of the solution to Australia’s biodiversity crisis, will be a key focus of discussion in the workshop.
