The result? Farmers who reduce their reliance on synthetic fertilisers, improve their soil health, and unlock better yields.\n\nWhat Greg unpacks:\n- How decades of modern agriculture have stripped carbon from our soils — and what that really means\n- Why synthetic fertilisers are a short-term fix with long-term consequences\n- The science and economics of compost as a genuine alternative\n- Why the age of biology is replacing the age of chemistry in farming\n- The commercial realities farmers are actually facing right now\n- How waste-to-resource business models are creating new economic opportunities\n- Why fixing our soils is ultimately about fixing our food system — and our future\n\nThis is a conversation about business, science, and the systems that feed us — and what it will take to repair them.\n\nPowered by The Finance Agency — salary-paid finance brokers for forward-thinking business owners. financeagency.com.au\n\n#RegenerativeAgriculture #FutureOfFood #SustainableFarming #AgriBusiness #BusinessPodcast #InTheTrenches #SoilHealth #CircularEconomy #EnvironmentalBusiness #Entrepreneurship","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/8ymsEg8Ghd07PPTvrY7eQXsu2sn0A8bNgWs4xQjipTs/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lODRi/MGVhNDFjNTVjNzZi/MzFlOTI5N2EyOWFh/MzFjMy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
