I had the great pleasure of interviewing Renske Linde, impact investor and co founder of Food System 6 (FS6) a nonprofit organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area that is working to transform our current industrial food system into a new model that is focused on environmental, physical and social health. They run a very interesting cohort for disruptive food entrepreneurs www.foodsystem6.org.
We discussed how Renske ended up in the space and why it is so important to look at the whole food system and not just the producing/agriculture part. And why non profits and blended capital are so important for the development of the space.

This time I interview Gregory Landua founder and CEO of www.terra-genesis.com an international regenerative design consultancy. His goal is to “transfer as much of the agriculture landscape as possible, to draw down carbon and uplift the local communities” To do that we need to look systemically and target the businesses who are making the big purchases and adding value to the ingredients.
Then we dived into the difficulties of “The logistics of bringing diversity to the market place”. Everything is build around mono crops, coming from a few immense farms and a few players spread to very diverse customers (us). “If a farmer no longer has to optimise for a single crop in order to sell bulk and have very low margins, but could sell 5 or even 10 different crops of of the same piece of land. And have those crops efficiently distributed to all of the different buyers, in a way that system of supply can aggregate at the appropriate scales and then distribute at the appropriate scales. We would have a system of supply which can meet a healthy ecosystem where it’s at.
”A potential solution: software to allow distributed purchases from diverse agri eco systems. That’s why Gregory and his team are working on Agrispecific Blockchains.
Tips from Gregory on how to start in impact investing in Regenerative Agriculture:

In this podcast I interviewed Judith D. Schwarz, a journalist whose recent work looks at soil as a hub for multiple environmental, economic and social challenges-and solutions. She wrote Cows Save the Planet and recently Water in Plain Sight. Both highly recommended when you want to learn more about what is possible with soil and agriculture.
We discussed how she ended up looking at Soil and why she is so enthusiastic about nature's way of solving issues.

How do we bring land tenures to the hundreds of millions small holder farmers around the world?

I interviewed Thomas Vaassen co-founder of Landmapp/Meridia. Thomas and his co founder ended up working on land tenures because it seemed the key factor in how to unlock value for economic development for small holder farmers. Thomas shared his experience of building this startup on the ground in Ghana. How they pivoted and changed many of their first assumptions as soon as they started working with real customers:)
They took an ancient system of land rights/tenures and digitalise some parts of it, so land rights could finally reach most of the farmers and not just a few. Because without land documentation no farmer will ever invest in their land because it could be taken away any moment.

A few months ago I interviewed Mike Korchinsky, founder and CEO of WildlifeWorks, active in Kenya and Congo working with local communities to protect their forests.
We had the time (55 min) to discuss many things, from how Mike got into the space, what co2 credits mean for his company etc.
Only during the last 15 minutes we discussed the role of Impact Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Forestry. Listening to it again I felt that these 15 minutes offer a lot of great insights as a standalone interview, so with permission of Mike, I'm sharing them here.

This time I had the pleasure to interview Mike Korchinsky, founder and CEO of WildlifeWorks, active in Kenya and Congo working with local communities to protect their forests. It all started with elephants and initially producing t-shirts locally to support community development. Now they are mostly active in the market of co2 credits and large scale ecosystem restoration. Still with a very strong focus on Community Development.
I asked about Mike's ideas and tips for the impact investing community and how to get involved in this often very difficult work and luckily he shared them with me. Enjoy!
The last 15 min we discussed Impact Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and I decided to share this as a separate podcast, you can find it here:
