Our podcast partnership with Global Farmer Network in support of the Farmer Voice survey continues with a focus on regenerative agriculture by amplifying the voices of three farmers: Andrew Weidemann from Australia, Gaytri Devi from India, and David Danio from the Philippines. These farmers have very different perspectives, but all share a unified and complex desire to maximize productivity while protecting soil and the health of the land they farm for future generations.

🌱 As we approach a global population of 9 billion by 2050, farmers are challenged to get the most out of every acre. Weeds are among the most significant threats to productivity that farmers face as they look to protect crops from competition and pests. Integrated Weed Management (IWM) can be a comprehensive solution to these challenges. By combining cultural, mechanical, biological, digital, and chemical methods, we can effectively combat weed resistance and promote sustainable farming practices. The connection between IWM and regenerative agriculture is strong. By enhancing soil health and biodiversity, regenerative practices not only suppress weed growth but also promote resilient farming systems. #IntegratedWeedManagement #RegenerativeAgriculture #FoodSecurity #AgInnovation #WeedManagement

Discussions at COP29 underscored the pressing need for solutions to enhance food security through innovations in plant breeding - this is especially relevant in efforts to develop nutritious, climate and pest-resilient produce sustainably. The tomato is a perfect example of how plant breeding innovation has enabled food security throughout the history of agriculture. Tomatoes are a core component of many diets and a vital source of essential vitamins. Through sustainable plant breeding, we’re researching how to create varieties that require less water and are more resilient to extreme weather, without sacrificing on taste or nutrition. Learn more about how advancements in plant breeding are addressing global food insecurity and malnutrition: http://spr.ly/6046tTFjY Together, we can cultivate a future where nutritious food is available, accessible and affordable to all. #RegenerativeAgriculture #FoodSecurity #SustainableFarming #COP29

🌾 Rice is critical to global food security. However, climate change is creating unprecedented challenges for rice production, from water shortages to increased carbon emissions. There are no quick fixes to addressing the dual challenges of food security and climate change. But by transforming the way rice is cultivated through innovative solutions like direct-seeded rice, we can make a lasting positive impact. Read the full article to learn more about the innovations being developed to protect this vital crop and ensure a resilient future for rice production: http://spr.ly/6042tTAnk #ClimateChange #SustainableDevelopment #RegenerativeAgriculture #FoodSecurity #RiceProduction #FutureOfFarming
