If you want to learn more about what regenerative farming is and how you can apply it to your own farm, this video is for you. You’ll gain insights into the principles and methods that have helped Sundhult successfully implement regenerative farming in collaboration with Solskensfarmarna and their Highland Cattle.

What is regenerative farming?
Christian explains the fundamental principles of regenerative farming and how to work towards building soil health. You’ll also get an introduction to the Understanding Ag approach to farming through their 6-3-4 model.

Working with nature
By working in sync with nature and following ecosystem processes—such as mineral cycles, water cycles, and energy flows—we can gain a better understanding of how to improve the health of the soil and plants. Christian also discusses the importance of biodiversity and how grazing animals play a crucial role in regenerating the land.

Soil health principles
The six soil health principles presented in the video, including minimal soil disturbance and living roots, are fundamental for long-term sustainable farming. Christian also highlights the importance of ground cover and how it protects the soil from erosion and drying out.

Adaptive rotational grazing
You’ll also learn about adaptive rotational grazing, a method for allowing livestock to graze in a way that stimulates soil recovery and helps regenerate the land. By adjusting the timing, number of animals, and how the pasture is managed, the soil’s structure and fertility can improve.
