Nature on our plates: what are we regenerating and how?
The more ‘regenerative’ our agriculture, the more what we produce, process, and consume must shift alongside how we produce it.
Using pulses as case study and guide, we ask who needs to be ready to accommodate that change. The session explores questions of credit, consumption shifts, and whether pulses suggest a different regenerative path.
At this interactive session, University of Oxford research groups will look to the audience to connect insights from two projects, Reckoning with Regeneration and the UK Pulses Roadmap. Through short provocations and facilitated discussion, participants will reflect on how regenerative ambitions translate into practice across farming, supply chains and diets.
Speakers will include researchers and project collaborators, with contributions from stakeholders across the agri-food system. The session is intended for policymakers, practitioners, researchers and civil society actors interested in food systems, nature and climate.
