    I’ve seen the efforts on biochar; there are examples of it being done well, and a lot of it being done badly. Without accounting and auditing to track what’s going on, you often don’t get great results.

    Regenerative agriculture is ill-defined, and there’s a lot of fraud in that space when it comes to carbon sequestration claims.

      You can say the exact same thing about the things you propose… so again, where are we? Please consider this line of reasoning and ask yourself why you’re so quick to use it.

      Can you show me a lot of fraud in regenerative agriculture in the context of USDA NRCS SOM tests? I’d like to see it.

        That’s too specific for me to turn one up; most of it is in the form of people saying “i’m doing regenerative ag, pay me” and doing no measurement and making all sorts of wild claims.

        There are some serious limits to its scale as well.

          Big negative claims apparently backed by nothing.

          Gabe Brown’s regenerative ag farm is 5000 acres. That’s a specific claim. You can even visit his farm in person.
