Supporting the transition to regenerative farming in the Cotswolds
Regenerate Outcomes is excited to be working with a group of 25 farmers and advisers to grow their understanding of regenerative farming practices in the Cotswolds.
The Regenerative Agriculture Accelerator Programme (RAAP) is being hosted and administered by the Cotswold National Landscape team, with core funding from the Farming in Protected Landscapes grant.
It involves a 12-month intensive programme of workshops, farm walks, agronomy clinics, facilitation training and other events.
Diversity, diversity, diversity
"I fundamentally believe that the only thing that creates soil structure is biology.
“The more biology that we have of different sorts, the more organic compounds that will come to help create that aggregate structure.”
In the latest in our Autumn and Winter Webinar Series, we were joined by Ian Gould, a director of Oakbank Game and Conservation, to focus on how increasing diversity of all living organisms can improve soil health.
Oakbank has built a great reputation working with farmers and landowners to make the best use of agri-environment schemes to improve wildlife habitats.
Understanding carbon: The essentials of the carbon credit market
In the last of our series explaining how carbon credits can create additional income as part of a resilient and profitable farm business, Bill Goldie - sales adviser at environmental risk management consultant Redshaw Advisers - talks about the fundamentals of the carbon market.
As Bill explains, there are two major markets for carbon credits: The compliance market and the voluntary market.
“Regenerative agriculture, if done properly, can remove huge volumes of carbon from the atmosphere and as such generate huge volumes of removal credits,” says Bill.
Understanding carbon: Explaining the carbon market for farmers
At Regenerate Outcomes we work with you to make your transition to regenerative food production as efficient, straightforward and profitable as possible.
We run regenerative farming training and online workshops, alongside carbon baselining and monitoring to generate high quality carbon credits with Verra, the world’s leading carbon credit registry.
In the second of our series of insights into the role of carbon in regenerative farming, our Chief Scientific Officer, Dr Matt Jordon, explains the basics of generating carbon credits and unpicks some of the jargon around the subject.
‘A process farmers can trust’: Meet Annie from Agricarbon
Regenerate Outcomes works with Agricarbon to generate internationally recognised carbon credits which can be sold to create additional revenue.
We caught up with co-founder Annie Leeson to find out more about Agricarbon’s approach and how it ensures the carbon credits we produce are of the highest value to both carbon buyers and our farmer members.
Agricarbon achieve this through the use of an industrial scale, robotic processing facility, which guarantees a high degree of accuracy in their soil sample analysis and a high sample throughput.
Understanding soil carbon: How plants and animals increase carbon stocks in healthy soils
Last month Regenerate Outcomes brought together a group of experts to answer your questions on the role of carbon in regenerative farming and how it can be used to generate income through the sale of high quality carbon credits.
Over the coming weeks we will be following up with a series outlining some of the key information presented by the panel.
First up is Blain Hjertass, from our mentoring partner Understanding Ag, who has been practising regenerative farming in Saskatchewan, Canada, for 20 years.
Webinar: Nicole Masters on using the Soilmentor app to track regenerative progress
On September 27 from 7pm to 8:15pm, globally recognised agroecologist and author Nicole Masters will be joining us to share her knowledge of regenerative practice and how Soilmentor can be used as a tool for farmers.
Soilmentor allows you to monitor soil health using simple metrics. Our mentoring team also use the information collected on the app to help you address day-to-day farming challenges.
The role of trees in regenerative farming
Regenerate Outcomes are sponsoring the inaugural Agroforestry Show, on September 6 and September 7, at Eastbrook Farm, Wiltshire.
The event will bring together those working in farming and forestry to bridge the gap in knowledge, support and skills for the good of everyone involved.
September 7 will include a panel discussion involving our Chief Scientific Officer Matt Jordon, alongside Kyle Richardville from our mentoring partner Understanding Ag and Essex agroecological farmer George Young.
