Join us for our first CrowdFarming Farmers' event in Germany!   📅 Date: Thursday, June 13, 2024 (10 AM to 6.30 PM)  📍 Location: Rieckens Eichhof, Großbarkau, near Kiel, Germany 📣 Topic: #Regenerative Agriculture ✍ Participation: Free, Registration Required through the link in the comments 🌡 We will discuss the challenges that concern us all with experts and farmers: constant winter rain, record-breaking spring heat, prolonged #droughts, and uncertain harvests. 👨🌾 We will spend the day at the Eichhof of the Riecken family, tour the farm, and get an introduction to the field of #Regenerative Agriculture, Crop Production and #Holistic Grazing. 🤗 We will have the opportunity to meet and connect with CrowdFarming family, Climate Farmers and regenerative farmers and experts Yann Boulestreau, Maarten Sillekens and Felix Riecken in person. 🐮 The Eichhof has been family-owned for over 120 years and has evolved into a modern #organic dairy farm with more than 70 dairy cows, mother-bound calf rearing, yogurt/cheese production, and a farm shop. 🌳  Since the catastrophic drought in 2018, Felix Riecken realized that he needed to prepare the family business for future challenges and began gradually introducing #agroforestry systems in combination with cattle farming and regenerative practices. We look forward to your participation and to meeting you in person!

➖ SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE INNOVATION The vertical farming revolution could be a sustainable solution for the future of food! It is a groundbreaking approach to agriculture that maximizes crop yield in minimal space. By utilizing innovative technologies like aeroponic towers and precise irrigation systems, this method offers a sustainable and efficient way to produce food. Whether you're a home gardener or a commercial farmer, vertical farming provides the opportunity to grow fresh, nutritious produce year-round. How do you envision vertical farming shaping the future of food production and addressing global challenges like food scarcity and environmental sustainability? Follow for eye-opening inspirations. 🤯 I bring you valuable and thought-provoking content that I consider cool, innovative, different, and distinctive. --- Follow Innovation Voice to showcase your innovation to a global audience! #innovation #agriculture #farming #technology #sustainability #future #innovationvoice

What does a ‘scale model’ of human impact look like? I think the most visibly shocking is: Agriculture. → 10% of earth is covered by glaciers. → 14% by deserts and barren land. → The 75% left? That’s habitable land. 44% of the total habitable land is used for agriculture. → That’s 48 million km2. → Or 5x the size of the USA. What’s that ‘agricultural land’ used for? Livestock, 80% of it. That includes: → Growing crops to feed to animals (16%) → Grazing animals (84%) BUT, livestock only provides 17% of the world’s calories. Agricultural land use: 🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🌱🌱🌱🌱 Where our calories come from: 🐄🐄🐄🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 So what? A more plant-based diet → lower climate and nature impact. Which 'scale impact' scene did you find most shocking? 👋 Follow Rob Cooper for more ♻️ Repost to spread the word P.S. For every 100 calories a cow consumes, we get 3 when we eat it.
