Abstract

Regenerative agricultural practices can contribute to addressing the triple burden of: (i) multiple forms of malnutrition; (ii) climate change; (iii) increasing costs and access to healthcare through current food systems unsustainable but significant investment in resources and effort to accelerate progress ahead of the climate clock is essential. Enabling environments that facilitate public and private sector collaboration based on principles required to deliver commitment by all collaboration between: (i) the production of foods using the principles of regenerative, climate-resilient agriculture; (ii) valuing food according to its natural nutrient density in addition to weight/and or volume; (iii) promoting efficient utilization of food by tailoring nutrition; and (iv) restructuring reproductive-health care services to place a higher value on the contributions of agriculture and farmers to preventive medicine.
