Transition to Regenerative Agriculture: Principles and Indicators of Soil Health Management

2025

Read source ↗ All evidence

Summary

This paper appears to provide a framework for understanding the principles and measurable indicators of soil health management during transitions to regenerative agriculture. Rather than reporting empirical findings from a single study, it likely synthesises existing knowledge to guide farmers and practitioners in assessing soil health improvements and monitoring the effectiveness of regenerative practices across different farming systems.

UK applicability

The principles and indicators presented would be broadly applicable to UK farming transitions, though specific regional adaptation may be needed given UK soil types, climate, and existing policy frameworks such as the Sustainable Farming Incentive. The work could inform UK guidance on soil management under environmental land management schemes.

Key measures

Soil health indicators (likely including organic matter, biological activity, structure, water retention, nutrient cycling, microbial biomass)

Outcomes reported

The paper likely presents principles, frameworks, and key soil health indicators for assessing and managing transitions to regenerative agricultural practices. It probable synthesises evidence on measurable indicators of soil health improvement across diverse farming contexts.
