Regenerative agriculture is an innovative approach to farming that prioritizes the restoration and enhancement of soil health while improving crop productivity. This sustainable farming practice aims to rebuild soil organic matter, promote biodiversity, and improve the resilience of agricultural systems to climate change. Unlike conventional agriculture, which often relies on chemical inputs and monoculture practices, regenerative agriculture emphasizes the use of cover crops, crop rotations, reduced tillage, agroforestry, and holistic livestock management. These practices contribute to healthier soils, higher carbon sequestration, and increased water retention, all of which lead to more productive and resilient farming systems. By fostering soil health, regenerative agriculture not only helps to improve yields but also supports long-term food security, mitigates climate change, and enhances ecosystem services. This paper reviews the principles, practices, and benefits of regenerative agriculture, highlighting its potential to transform the future of food production while safeguarding natural resources for future generations.
