What is Net Zero World
The most common is predominantly affiliated with climate
change and the preservation of a livable plant. It is generally
agreed that achieving a balance between the amount of
emissions (greenhouse gases/carbons) produced and those
removed from the atmosphere to “net zero” will exponentially
reduce global warming. Thus, preventing the worse impacts of
climate change begins with becoming carbon neutral quickly.
With a focus on building and transitioning to the
decarbonization of energy systems, companies are beginning to
operate with clean and secure energy sources which will lead to
a “net zero” state.

Eliminating emissions on farms is essential to our ability to meet our
net-zero goal
• Money is not enough on its own.
• Finally, farmers need to be part of a community of peers who are trying similar things
and can share learnings.

Only by working together can we build the
food system of the future
•We must produce more nutritious and affordable food to feed a growing world
population.
•We must transform food production to cut greenhouse gas emissions, build
healthier soils, and support biodiversity. And thereby create a more sustainable,
resilient, and fair value chain.
•We must ensure that food producers are incentivised to care for their land while
earning a sustainable income.
5
We urgently need to replenish and regenerate the resources required
to grow our food
• About 52% of agricultural soils are degraded, food is the number one user of water, and some
experts say we have less than 30 years of water supply left.
• In comparison, there is a steep decline in farmers (from 44% to 26% in 9 years, based on data
from the International Labor Organization).
• This means farming in a way that improves soil health, biodiversity, water efficiency, climate
resiliency and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Four elements of regenerative agriculture
COVER CROPPING REDUCED TILLAGE
One of the most widely known and Traditional tilling breaks up the
accepted practices in regenerative soil, which can help keep weeds
agriculture is cover cropping—that is, down but also leaves soil dried out
planting crops in fields that would and subject to crusting on its
otherwise lay fallow between growing surface.
seasons or that can grow
simultaneously with cash crops.
NUTRIENT
CROP ROTATION MANAGEMENT
Crop rotation improves the health of More precise management of
soil, reduces erosion, and allows fertilizers and manure could also
farmers to use less fertilizer. Centuries reduce emissions.
ago, farmers rotated crops on a three-
or four-year cycle, mixing in years for
grazing or laying fallow.

Conclusion
In fact, reaching net zero itself is actually
dependent on modernized agricultural practices.
The world of regenerative agriculture is centered
in the art of land management-a dynamic system
that involves climate, water, and energy-in
addition to labor and beyond. Regenerative deals
with the how natural resources of the land are
leveraged in harmony with nature to produce
sustainable, good quality food- the ultimate
responsibility of the food industry.
