Regenerative agriculture
Regenerative agriculture aims to restore and improve soil health and water security, enhance ecosystem services and
biodiversity, and mitigate the effects of climate change. Compared with sustainable agriculture which seeks to maintain systems
without further degradation, regenerative agriculture aims to improve environmental indicators.
CAB Abstracts enables the work of scientists, researchers and specialists by including the latest research on all aspects of
regenerative agriculture including the components of the system and ecological, environmental and socioeconomic benefits.

CABI’s CAB Abstracts database comprehensively covers hot topics that matter
CAB Abstracts sources the world literature to provide the complete picture on regenerative agriculture in farming
systems across the world, including information on:
• Key principles: these include reduced tillage, using
cover crops and rotations, integrating livestock, maximizing
biodiversity, promoting soil health and fertility, and reducing
chemical inputs.
Regenerative agriculture: an agronomic perspective.
Outlook on Agriculture, 2021
Regenerative rotational grazing management of dairy sheep
increases springtime grass production and topsoil carbon
storage.
Ecological Indicators, 2021
• Local conditions: responses to regenerative practices vary
depending on specific factors and local conditions.
Interaction of soil health indicators to different regenerative
farming practices on mineral soils.
Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2022
Influence of the choice of cultivar and soil fertilization on PTE
[potentially toxic element] concentrations in Lactuca sativa L. in
the framework of the regenerative agriculture.
Land, 2021
• Evidence: evidence-based information is needed on the
viability and benefits of regenerative farming.
Soil health and nutrient density: preliminary comparison of
regenerative and conventional farming.
PeerJ, 2022
Temperate regenerative agriculture practices increase soil
carbon but not crop yield – a meta-analysis.
Environmental Research Letters, 2022
• Uptake: successful uptake will depend on scalability, adoption
of appropriate practices, economic viability and agronomic
productivity.
Socioeconomic factors influencing the uptake of regenerative
agriculture technologies in the dry lands of Embu County.

KNOWLEDGE FOR LIFE

Introducing CAB Abstracts
CAB Abstracts is the leading English-language bibliographic information service providing access to the world’s applied
life sciences literature from 1973 onwards, with over 380,000 abstracts added each year. Its coverage of the applied life
sciences includes agriculture, environment, veterinary sciences, applied economics, food science and nutrition.
For access to premium historical research (1913-1972), combine your subscription with CAB Abstracts Archive.
CAB Abstracts and CAB Abstracts Archive are available on a range of platforms including CABI’s own platform
CAB Direct (which re-launched in July 2016).
