When undertaking any large project, there is a risk of realizing what your true desire is too late in the process to make any significant changes. This can result in a final product that is not worth the time, energy, and money that you put into it.


In these pages you will gain the tools to define your values and refine your goals. You will learn about the resources that you already have but may not be aware of. You will learn to find a balance between sustainable practices, and your other goals. This awareness will give you the best chance of designing a truly meaningful project.


We will look exclusively at examples within the context of regenerative agriculture, yet the processes outlined in this book will assist in any project. Whether you are building a house, installing an orchard, or creating a large business; some of these tools will apply to every decision you make.

Soil Health and Intensification of Agroecosystems
<p><i>Soil Health and Intensification of Agroecosystems</i> examines the climate, environmental, and human effects on agroecosystems and how the existing paradigms must be revised in order to establish sustainable production. The increased demand for food and fuel exerts tremendous stress on all aspects of natural resources and the environment to satisfy an ever increasing world population, which includes the use of agriculture products for energy and other uses in addition to human and animal food. </p> <p>The book presents options for ecological systems that mimic the natural diversity of the ecosystem and can have significant effect as the world faces a rapidly changing and volatile climate. The book explores the introduction of sustainable agroecosystems that promote biodiversity, sustain soil health, and enhance food production as ways to help mitigate some of these adverse effects.</p> <p>New agroecosystems will help define a resilient system that can potentially absorb some of the extreme shifts in climate. Changing the existing cropping system paradigm to utilize natural system attributes by promoting biodiversity within production agricultural systems, such as the integration of polycultures, will also enhance ecological resiliency and will likely increase carbon sequestration.</p>
