Kurzbeschreibung:

With companies risking disruptions to fiber production from climate impacts and biodiversity loss, at Textile Exchange we believe that a transition to regenerative agriculture is fundamental to the long-term health of the sector. Regenerative practices can play a key role in helping farmers develop more resilient systems, bringing immense social and environmental benefits.

The Regenerative Agriculture Landscape Analysis offers a deeper understanding of tools, programs, initiatives, and guidance on the subject. It highlights how important it is for brands to clearly define their own use of the term, and to ensure that social justice, equity, and livelihoods are meaningfully embedded in any project deemed regenerative.

Key takeaways:

• The long-term health of the fashion and textile industry will depend on how it is able to work with farmers to develop more resilient systems, and regenerative practices offer immense social and environmental benefits
• Regenerative agriculture can’t be defined in a single statement or set of practices.
• Programs should be rooted in justice, equity and livelihoods.
• Regenerative agriculture is about much more than increasing soil carbon levels.
• We need to move out of silos to speed up the transition.
