episode 8: #8 Paying farmers for positive ecological outcomes with Regen Network
In this episode we talk with Christian Shearer and Sarah Baxendell from Regen Network to understand how they are monitoring the ecological outcomes of farming practices and offering an additional income stream to farmers who are regenerating land. These type of tools are crucial to scaling agroforestry as they help make ecologically sound practices economically viable in the short term. We discuss in depth how Regen Network is monitoring ecological change on farms, what data they use, and what taking part in their platform means for farmers. Will biodiversity and carbon credits become key sources of income for agroforestry projects? Listen and decide for yourself.
