Regenerative agriculture is a set of farming practices designed to restore soil health, increase biodiversity and sequester carbon, including cover cropping, reduced tillage and diverse rotations, going beyond sustainability by actively improving the land.
In trade practice
Buyers sourcing from Ukraine increasingly request evidence of regenerative practices through farm audits, soil organic matter reports and crop rotation records. Suppliers may reference private certification schemes such as Regenerative Organic Certified or align with buyer-defined standards. QA teams check that cover cropping and tillage reduction claims are supported by field-level documentation rather than self-declaration alone.
In a specification
A procurement specification may require suppliers to declare regenerative practices used, supported by third-party audit reports or soil health assessments conducted within a defined period.
