Transcript

00:00 Six inches of soil feeds eight billion people.

00:05 We already grow enough of all the human essential nutrients to feed everyone who's alive.

00:12 Farming is the single biggest cause of biodiversity collapse,

00:16 the second biggest cause of climate change.

00:20 Soil is the most valuable resource on the planet,

00:23 and we're degrading it without even realising.

00:27 We have come to believe that money is more important than soil.

00:32 That idea has to change.

00:37 Regenerative agriculture is farming, that we're producing food,

00:42 but also farming in harmony with nature.

00:44 You're working with nature, not against it.

00:46 The more people see it, the more that they realise that it works.

00:52 Having a regenerative agro-ecological system, that is surely a solution.

00:57 Soils are absolutely phenomenal in the amount of carbon they can store.

01:04 What we absolutely need now is urgent action from the government.

01:10 Until you deal with nine retailers who have 94.5% of food sales in Britain,

01:16 you're not going to have a level playing field.

01:20 Consumers have a choice.

01:22 They can decide to buy cheap meat from industrial farms,

01:26 or they can find farmers that really value animal welfare

01:30 and the environment that we're farming in.

01:33 Dad started RegenFarming for the future generations to come,

01:36 and that was the most selfless act he could have done.

01:39 The people who are doing this are making big sacrifices.

01:43 I think the potential is absolutely huge here.

01:47 These farms really can change the world.

01:49 It's all about the soil, isn't it really?

01:55 Yeah, definitely.

01:57 Yeah, definitely.
