Financial and climate impact of regenerative farming practices

May 02, 2024 | Farm Carbon Toolkit | Source

A recent study conducted with Students Organizing for Sustainability (SOS) in the UK explored the financial and climate impacts of various regenerative farming practices in the UK. The report emphasizes potential financial benefits from adopting these practices, particularly when supported by Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) payments. It highlights that while regenerative practices may initially lead to lower yields and output, they reduce business risk by lowering input costs. The transition period to regenerative systems, crucial for soil health improvement, typically spans up to five years. The report calls for increased research to clarify impacts on yield and output, alongside support for farmers to acquire necessary skills. It also recommends enhanced institutional support and the development of machinery-sharing initiatives to facilitate broader adoption of regenerative farming practices across different farm types. These findings underscore the growing momentum and challenges in integrating sustainable agricultural practices into mainstream farming in the UK.
