Regenerative agriculture in Europe - A critical analysis of contributions to European Union Farm to Fork and Biodiversity Strategies

As an agronomist and founder of Abuti Spinach, I am passionate about empowering small-scale farmers in Africa through innovative solutions. Recently, I came across a study on advancing transnational assessments of biodiversity drivers in European agriculture. The study highlighted the importance of developing a standardized system to assess biodiversity in agriculture. To achieve this, the researchers created a hierarchical crop and agriculture taxonomy

RegenFarm Co. is Redefining Agriculture 🌱 A few weeks ago, we visited Dr Vincent Walsh and his team at RegenFarmCo, where innovative agroforestry is transforming traditional farming. By boosting soil biology and biodiversity, they’re creating more resilient ecosystems and driving higher yields. 🌾🔬 This is #Farming2point0 —where science meets sustainability. #Agriculture #BackBritishFarming #RegenFarm #Sustaiability #Yorkshire.

"Nature-based benefits like carbon sequestration and biodiversity are critical for investors today." - Brett Hundley 🌳🌍 In today’s world, sustainable farming practices that capture carbon and support biodiversity are no longer optional—they’re essential. Brett Hundley, CFA shares why investors are prioritizing nature-based solutions that align with ecological and financial goals.

Again.... This can be the next breakthrough in the Food systems resilience approach. Being open source and havibg lower system requirements, this can be deployed in low infrastructure context. Co-designing is necessary though, and so is a heavy tailoring. I tried to make something with the OpenAI s custom GPT s but it needs premium access to operate. The AI and digital world is changing at a disruptive pace and it is our duty to evaluate and "sandbox" some useful tools A collaborative approach and scoping dialogues should be set to tap this potential. #FoodSecurity #SeedSector #climatesmartagriculture #AIinAgriculture Wageningen University & Research SeedNL Resilience BV
