Greenfield Robotics is getting chemicals out of regenerative agriculture
Description
"No-till," "carbon farming," and "regenerative ag" are buzzwords in agriculture. But did you know these techniques rely heavily on herbicides to produce food at scale? In this podcast, I chat with Clint from Greenfield Robotics. His company creates solutions for regenerative farmers to minimize inputs like chemicals and achieve success without disturbing precious soil microbes through tilling.
You'll learn the three main things that make a farm more carbon neutral (or regenerative) and why it's challenging to do this on large swaths of fields. We also discuss if farmers are receptive to adopting new technology and what Greenfield is doing differently to help them succeed.
Clint shares a farmer's perspective on how to buy the most nutrient-rich foods for your family and gives a staunch warning about foods labeled 'organic.' He emphasizes why it's so important to consider not just what you're putting in your body but where that food comes from.
