Adoption of regenerative agriculture is needed at scale. Limited cultural acceptance among row crop producers led Midwest Row Crop Collaborative members to explore new ways to promote acceptance of regenerative agriculture messaging in Midwest farming communities. Farmer engagement through survey research, data collection, creative content, and focused messaging has been underway and data insights are being applied to a playbook for agriculture industry influencers.
Supply chain projects led by MRCC members operate at a significant size, but their direct impact and influence alone is not enough to drive landscape-level change. Public policy is critical to help reduce negative externalities associated with agriculture, and MRCC members recommend policy that invests in agriculture as a climate solution.
