This is a list of organisations promoting regenerative agriculture:

EDIT: While rereading this thread I noticed that Adam has already posted this link above.

Hi - I think a great source of information on regenerative ag is the book "Biomimicry" by Janine Benyus and the Biomimicry Institute which you can join and even take classes for free I believe.
Another great resource stateside is The Land Institute, they are heavily focused on moving away from monoculture annual crops towards more polyculture / perennial crops. Ya know, as nature intended it to be...

Hi George

While not an expert, I'm a huge fan of regenerative agriculture and design.

Here's a list of regenerative agriculture organisations:

And another list that requires you to download a PDF (I haven't done so):

I hope these links help

Here are some books available from Amazon:

Holistic Management

Restoration Agriculture

Dirt to Soil

For the Love of Soil

This story about sustainable agriculture is worth a read:

Note the numerous helpful links throughout the article.

I just read this story in Smithsonian Magazine about regenerative grazing.

It also included a link this documentary about regenerative grazing.

Here's the trailer for Carbon Cowboys:

Dear Adam Thyer, Ben Bailey, and James Miller

Many thanks for the very helpful links!

Adam Thyer, the Carbon Cowboys videos are very inspirational, thanks for sharing.

I have seen quite a lot of information about regenerative grazing but less about regenerative cropping. It seems that the former is very successful in terms of commercial viability, soil health, animal health, ecology, and CO2 sequestration. Can anyone share any information about the efficacy of regenerative cropping?

Jessica Martin, you said:

I've been wondering the same thing. I did a quick search for academic papers looking at the efficacy of regenerative cropping but didn't find any. If anyone knows of any studies, it would be great if you would post them here.

I recommend this short 15 mins film about the work of Ernst Goetsch in Brazil - it's truly impactful and eye-opening, no matter if you have previous interest in agroforestry or not: https://youtu.be/gSPNRu4ZPvE

The Australian farm Byron Grass Fed has a series of YouTube videos about regenerative grazing.

I just stumble upon what appears to be a new YouTube channel about regenerative agriculture:

The film of the book Kiss the Ground is now on Netflix, well worth a watch.

I want to again say thank you to everyone for sharing all of these links!

YouTube has a decent number of videos about regenerative agriculture. Some are just the general concepts for non experts, but others are by farmers for farmers. Try some terms like, "regenerative agriculture", "regenerative farming", "regenerative grazing", "sustainable agriculture", "sustainable farming", "sustainable grazing".

I just read this story about regenerative agriculture.

I recently discovered this map showing regenerative agriculture projects around the world. Clicking on the pins shows a description of the specific project and links to more information.

Found this list of recommended books:
