Cloud Farming Limited Revolutionising Scottish Agriculture: How Regenerative Farming is Promoting Sustainability and Resilience
Regenerative farming is an agricultural approach we utilise here at Cloud Farming, that aims to improve the health and vitality of the soil and ecosystem, while also producing healthy and nutritious crops. At Cloud, we are increasingly turning to regenerative farming as a way to promote sustainability and resilience in our operations.
One way that we are implementing regenerative farming practices is by reducing our use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides. Instead, we are using natural methods such as cover cropping, crop rotation, and composting to build healthy soils and prevent soil erosion.
Another key aspect of regenerative farming is the use of livestock to help restore and improve the health of the soil. Grazing animals can help to break up compacted soil and improve soil structure, while their manure can be used as a natural fertiliser.
Cloud Farming is also implementing agroforestry practices, which involve planting trees and other perennial crops alongside traditional crops. This helps to create diverse ecosystems that can provide multiple benefits, such as improved soil health, carbon sequestration, and wildlife habitat.
Overall, regenerative farming is helping Scotland to build more sustainable and resilient agricultural systems. By working with nature rather than against it, we are able to produce healthy crops while also protecting the environment and promoting long-term sustainability.
We are proud to be a part of Scotland’s regenerative farming community, and on the forefront of tomorrow’s farming standards here at Cloud!
