Abstract
Agriculture is in crisis. Soil health is collapsing. Biodiversity faces the sixth mass extinction. Crop yields are plateauing. The concept of a regenerative agriculture can be traced back to the cusp of the 1980’s sustainability evolution. In response to the apparent dichotomy between sustaining our growing human population through agricultural production, regeneration of resources for sustainable quest in changing scenario of global warming issues related with conventional practices. Regenerative agriculture could be proved as guide ground concept for overall improvement of soil water and environment millennium.
