‘Farming carbon’: A no‐regrets strategy for dealing with climate change while promoting an agricultural renaissance

Abstract We have gained much and lost much through industrial agriculture with its emphasis on purchased farm inputs, greatly increased farm scale, decreased biodiversity and farming practices that leave soil bare and lifeless during much of the year. ‘Farming carbon’ through regenerative agroenergy systems enables better agricultural practices that improve the beauty and ecological health of rural areas while mitigating climate change and increasing the prosperity of farmers and farm communities.
