ReGen

David R. Montgomery has written another masterpiece. ReGen shows that regenerative agriculture is not just a new buzz word for greenwashing policies, but if it is understood and based on the principles of conservation agriculture–minimum soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and diversity–it works sustainably and regeneratively. This book is a must read for everyone, not only for experts of the subject matter, since it shows nothing less than how we can as humans eventually survive on this planet.–Dr. Theodor Friedrich, retired Food and Agriculture Organization senior officer and Amir Kassam Professor at Reading UniversityDavid R. Montgomery is a craftsman of literature and soil. ReGen combines both skills into a succinct and compelling book on how to regenerate our farms, soils, and food systems. I was once advised to read the one book that saves you from reading many others. This is that book. Regenerative agriculture will dominate the future, and David knows how and why.–Paul Hawken, author of Carbon and RegenerationIf you are hungry for some good news, you will find a feast in ReGen. David R. Montgomery, who has elsewhere recounted the myriad problems that attend modern food production, now describes the solutions. ReGen is cogent, authoritative, and persuasive.–Denis Hayes, chair and CEO of the Bullitt Foundation
