Blue Dot goes down on the farm by visiting with folks from California State University, Chico's Center for Regenerative Agriculture and Resilient Systems (CRARS).
First, Producer Matt Fidler is given a tour of the college farm and organic dairy with CRARS Director and co-founder Cynthia Daley. Dr. Daley then joins Dave for a discussion of what regenerative agriculture's principles and practices are and how they can be both beneficial for the land and economically productive for farmers, ranchers, and orchardists.
Host Dave Schlom gets an in-depth look at soil science and the benefits of carbon capture with CSUC Environmental Science Professor Sandrine Matiasek and graduate student Jessica Portrera.
Then he wraps up the show by visiting with Tyler Burke, who did his Master's degree work by studying an alfalfa farm in Southern California where both traditional and regenerative ag practices are employed.
