Luhman: Lightening the Load

So often people fear that in order to improve their soil health and regenerate their soil it will come at the expense of their profitability and the success of their farming business. And while it is true that adopting regenerative farming practices can be a learning experience, and sometimes that comes with yield hits or disappointing results, when regenerative agriculture is done right with mentorship of experienced farmers there is no reason why you can’t have improved soil health as well as improved profitability!

Many individuals in the regenerative agriculture world were forced to figure a lot of this out themselves with trial and error. However, we don’t have to do it alone! There are countless resources including YouTube, podcasts, books, conferences and conventions where a wealth of knowledge and experience can be accessed for free or very reasonable costs.

If you want to implement soil health principles on your farm, don’t be afraid to reach out to somebody doing what you want to try, or reach out to us at the Sustainable Farming Association. We don’t claim to have all the answers, but we do have an amazing network of hundreds of farmers working towards the same goals of improving lifestyle, farm profitability and soil health! So there is a good chance we know somebody with the answer to your questions! If you are ready to take the leap into something new don’t hesitate to reach out to me at jared@sfa-mn.org.
