Regenerative farms that combined no-till, cover crops, and diverse rotations-a system known as Conservation Agriculture—produced crops with higher soil organic matter levels, soil health scores, and levels of certain vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. https://t.co/2VHEhvPuF1
@NathanKRice @ArianaLFigueroa @NJMonitor @kissthegroundCA @RegenerateAmer RE: nutrition and if growing methods, here's a recent paper by @Dig2Grow contradicting Larson's comments. Regen Ag also isn't organic Ag. So equating the 2 is a mistake https://t.co/Z5AAhkU27v

. @repdavidscott in response to Dr. Larson's comments about there being no nutritional differences betw diff types of farming practices, there's actually been very little research that looked at this directly. Here's one recent PR paper that did https://t.co/Z5AAhkU27v
@JayneReesBuxton @Rob_Percival_ @JohnG_UK @kcisney @TyRBeal And yes, as @Dig2Grow demonstrated in their latest book and this PR'd paper, the way food is raised and the health of the soil greatly impacts nutrient density (as well as yields) https://t.co/Z5AAhkU27v

Declining nutrient density is a problem with the prevalent system of industrial agriculture. This study finds regenerative farming linked to improved nutrient density. Feed the soils and the soils will feed us. https://t.co/OjTLpbKFDQ via @PeerJLife

Food grown using #regenerativeagriculture practices has higher nutritional content, according to a new University of Washington study published in science journal PeerJ. Check it out here: https://t.co/bTNBn0daVT. https://t.co/pBgj4dgQaS

Wat als... de € voor de toekomstige LB mee afhankelijk werd vd #voedzaamheid vz product? Am. studie zegt (5à10jr) #regeneratief bedrijf vs conventioneel: -> gewassen + gehaltes fytochemicaliën (gezonde micronutr. bv. caroteen) -> vlees + gezonde vetten https://t.co/0HjIiq7wl0

The @UW study compared the nutritional content of #food crops grown using conventional versus regenerative #farming practices — those that build the soil by using cover crops, a diverse rotation of crops & minimal tilling for 5 to 10 years. https://t.co/E9e3uvuH7D
