This episode compares the production of 1 acre in an Industrial Agriculture system, annual monocultures, vs. Regenerative Agriculture, perennial woody polycultures from multiple perspectives. The difference between these two systems is not only in calories & nutrients but how it impacts personal health, the environment, and the economics of an investment. The research used in this analysis is based upon Mark Shepard's work in Restoration Agriculture.
