Growing a Regenerative Perspective | Jared Knock | TEDxSioux Falls

While regenerative agriculture has become a popular topic in recent years, there is still much debate on what the term really means. In this talk, the framework of linear vs circular systems is discussed, pointing out the countless ways that agriculture has the capacity to be regenerative. Specific examples of regenerative agriculture practices are outlined in the talk, showing how improved agriculture management practices can be more regenerative, productive, and profitable- all at the same time. Jared has 25 years of experience on the land as a part-owner of a diversified livestock and crop farm in the Northern Great Plains. The operation raises cattle, sheep, hogs, corn, soybeans, wheat, oats, alfalfa, rye, and forage cover crops. Through the lessons learned on his own land, Jared is passionate about equipping fellow farmers and ranchers to enable greater resilience and functionality through positive land management and grazing practices. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
