Abstract

Regenerative agriculture is a revolutionary farming method that aims to address the many issues raised by current agricultural practices by balancing soil health, carbon management, and socio-ecological results. This all-encompassing framework incorporates ideas to improve and restore soil ecosystem health, store carbon in the atmosphere, and build resilient rural communities. Regenerative agriculture prioritizes soil health by emphasizing techniques like cover crops, decreased tillage, and diverse cropping systems, which together strengthen soil structure, increase microbial activity, and accelerate nutrient cycling. Through their substantial contribution to carbon sequestration, these techniques help to stabilize the climate by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Simultaneously, regenerative agriculture supports structures that foster socio-ecological resilience, such as fair resource distribution, farmer welfare, and community involvement. This strategy strives to improve ecological integrity and reconstruct rural livelihoods in addition to raising farm productivity and profitability. The combination of these components highlights a comprehensive vision in which agricultural methods are in line with social and ecological goals, offering a sustainable route forward for food systems in the future. In addition to providing insights into regenerative agriculture's potential to address global sustainability issues, this abstract highlights the fundamental concepts, advantages, and potential drawbacks of the practice. It also advances ecological and community health. Findings demonstrate convergence with respect to goals that improve the environment and emphasize the significance of socioeconomic factors that support food security.
