description First paragraph: In a world where industrial agriculture domi­nates, Vandana Shiva’s Agroecology and Regenera­tive Agriculture: Sustainable Solutions for Hunger, Poverty and Climate Change asks a pivotal question: Can we transform our food systems to heal the planet and its people? Shiva’s work challenges conventional farming, advocating for a future of regenerative, organic agriculture. Shiva is an inspiring scholar and activist with expertise in food sovereignty, ecofeminism, and commoning. Drawing on decades of research conducted at her farm, Navdanya, and global examples from scholarly literature, she ar­gues that regenerative agriculture is both viable and essential for tackling the inter­connected crises of hunger, poverty, and climate change. In this book, Shiva takes the reader through six distinct agricul­tural issues with over­lapping themes: seeds of bio­diversity, soil and water, climate change solu­tions, biodiversity for pest control, food nutrition and health, and farmer livelihoods and rural economies. . . .
