@@drankfromtoilet What is wrong with profit motives? Are profits "impure"? Would Unilever deserve more praise if their "regenerative farming" was costing them big losses?
Watering only when you need it is not 'regenerative'. Regenerative is about building life back into the soil. If doing regenerative the soil holds more water and you barely have to water artificially at all.
Check into Allan Savory and Gabe Brown. They take it to the next level. These guys are just dipping their toes in without ticking off the 'climate saviors'.
Definitely not saying they are an ideal company. Just covering their work in the regenerative space. I don't think there's any large corporation with all good practices. They are understanding like Pepsi that their supply chain is in jeopardy
At its most simple explanation, Regen Ag is about managing air, water and sunlight. It follows 6 principles that can be applied in small plots or large scale farms and ranches. It's a holistic management system that is Observation and Thinking Intensive, and highly Context Dependent.
Yes, R.A. focuses on soil fertility enhancement. It requires a change of mindset, of farming philosophy. Those who laugh at it will be laughing all the way to bankruptcy. It's only logical.
@@RegenerativeFarmersofAmerica that says it all. Also is there a “veganic” farming? How efficient is that? Or veganic and vertical farming is interchangeable?
still using all of their chemical add-ons, of course. In my mind this is inconsistent with true regeneration of the soil. My worry is that they will co-opt the term.
@@moniquelefebvre4798 Correct. The Haggerty farm in North West Australia that is a very dry area has some areas of the farm not having received herbicides for 21 years, nor fertilizers for 18 years and one area that they have straight cropped 6 years of wheat and no drop in yields because they use biological seed starters and worm extracts plus maybe 1 biological foliar spray. Their yields are generally 50%higher than the neighbours fields that use full fertilizer and sprays. The biological seed starter you can make yourself but it takes about a year to mature .
Small steps make big changes
Good to see a multi national company getting involved in regenerative agriculture.
They only tend to a act, when there profit margins get effected😢😢
I would be weary of this particular one.

@1voluntaryist hey what's wrong with asking?
@@1voluntaryist when profit go's before safety, greed go's before something worse.

Some one was doing their homework . Good job!
This is astonishing to know( I was thinking its not practical/possible). I call upon all farmers let's start regenerate our farm lands. All the best
I was looking for more info on this type of agriculture on a larger scale. Thank you for this info. .

Check out Ian and Dianne Haggerty , Or Dr. David C. Johnson Johnson Su Bioreactor.
Yes i trust anything Unilever does. Awesome job folks.
I trust any company to do what makes a profit, and as this video showed, it makes a profit.
Sorry. You are not answering your own question. Weird video
Isn't unilever is on the same level as nestle when it comes to shady business practices?

The Haggertys in West Australia, 30,000 odd Ha's, Rick Clarke, 60 foot rollercrimper
The Haggerty's have had up to 60,000 hectares but has scaled back as they are aging.
@@kerrryschultz2904 yes, I received an email the other day regarding that, I can't fathom that scale, mine's 16ha
How does this compare to vertical farming (With renewable energy)? Which is better in terms of cost, pricing, environment, soil, animals?
Running a high electricity facility with no nutrients in the product? Or healing our soil, increasing nutrition in food, and restoring topsoil?
@@RegenerativeFarmersofAmerica that says it all. Also is there a “veganic” farming? How efficient is that? Or veganic and vertical farming is interchangeable?
it's a start and if it gets small farm owners to try it, great, but very little diversity in the fields themselves--only 'surrounding areas'.

@@moniquelefebvre4798 It's not about the "term". "You can't fool Mother Nature!" Those who pretend, cheat themselves.
