American Farmland Trust (AFT), a national non-profit, is reaching out to left-leaning political wonks with a paid message in Politico that we need to unify behind a push for regenerative agriculture, and the preservation of farmland and farms, for the sake of all of us, including the climate.
No, regenerative agriculture isn’t being oversold — it’s being underutilized.
John Piotti. “A green future for agriculture all Americans can get behind.”
So what do you think? Did AFT manage to make the subject sexy enough to attract attention? I found their suggested next moves for the incoming administration interesting :
- Promotion of carbon markets in The Growing Climate Solutions Act
- Encouraging regenerative practices in the next Farm Bill (more about this later)
- Using a future economic stimulus bill to help farmers
- Administrative moves on Biden’s part, like a national cover crop initiative

Is it legit for me to comment on my own posts? Be that as it may, here’s more advice for Biden from American Farmland Trust with more meat and less appeal to the non-farmers among us. https://farmland.org/transition2021/
