Regenerative agriculture is at an inflection point. New Policies, funding opportunities, certification programs, and scientific findings are shaping the movement's direction and outcomes. Major food companies are continuing to expand their regenerative programs, but critical gaps remain, hindering their ability to achieve the full range of regenerative outcomes. In addition, a lack of universal regenerative agriculture standards and regulations makes it difficult for investors to measure the success of companies’ regenerative programs.
