A circular economy for food has diverse environmental, social, and economic advantages. This sector offers some of the most powerful opportunities for the regeneration of the natural system by restoring soil health to degraded agricultural land. Regenerative farming practices offer an effective way to leverage natures intrinsic circular systems and produce more secure long term food supplies. Innovative techniques and technologies are used to generate economic benefits by turning organic materials previously seen as waste into higher value products.

Food produced through a circular economic model is grown in nutrient-rich compost with minimal pesticides to enhance the microbial richness of the soil and the concentration of bioavailable nutrients. This makes it healthier for the consumer and has far reaching implications for governments and the public health sector. The circular economy offers ways to turn the problem of food waste into opportunities for regenerating natural systems including soil health and water management.
