Reductionist, "effect of A on B" research will be unable to reliably account for the successes. Regenerative land management is a black box to most, because they do not have the mental map of biospheric cycles and wholes such as the carbon cycle (which tends to be seen as sources and sinks, not a cycle) or the water cycle.<BR/><BR/>Here in the U.S. we do have the work of Rattan Lal, but these figures are an order of magnitude lower than what is possible, as Lal's work deals entirely with conventional farming practices and categories.Peter Donovanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08689816855513961829noreply@blogger.com
