*Carbon Farming, Soil Conservation & New Technologies Conference*

*Cavalli Estate, Stellenbosch, Western cape*

*1st – 3rd June 2022*





Good day,



Kindly see information below and attached for your attention.



Join *Empire Conferencing & Training *in partnership with *Stellenbosch
University* on the *1st – 3rd June 2022 *for the *Carbon Farming, Soil
Conservation & New Technologies Conference 2022 *to be hosted at *Cavalli

conference will bring together a cross section of stakeholders, including
regenerative agriculture practitioners, soil scientists, researchers,
government agencies and the investment sector with the specific goal of
progressing a food secure future.



*Overview *

Agriculture is a major contributor to destructive global warming through
habitat destruction. It is also one of the fastest, most powerful ways to
reverse it by restoring healthy function to our soils and the hydrological
cycle. Regenerative farming practices do that at low cost. The conference
speakers will explain the Why? and the How? of profitably regenerating the
Soil Carbon Sponge through Healthy Soil Principles to grow nutrient-dense
food and fibre that improves our environment
