Carbon farming (AKA Regenerative Agriculture) is a menu of agricultural practices selected to complement and enhance the land's ability to sequester carbon. There are many methods available and they are selected based on land and soil types as well as individual operational goals and needs. In addition to sequestering carbon dioxide, these techniques provide regenerative benefits that can strengthen soil health, reduce operating costs, and increase productivity.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service recognizes many different conservation techniques as regenerative agriculture practices that boost carbon sequestration into the soil.
