Listen "#61: Dr. Jonathan Lundgren's Ecdysis & The Thousand Farms Initiative Research Project"
Episode Synopsis
What if the future of food wasn’t just sustainable, but regeneratively superior? Join us for an explosive deep dive with Dr. Jonathan Lundgren, Founder & Director, Ecdysis Foundation and owner of Blue Dasher Farm, a research foundation as well as training ground for future scientists and farmers. He is an Agroecologist, Farmer, Rancher, and Beekeeper the driving force behind the Thousand Farms Initiative. This isn’t just another farm study. This is the largest regenerative food nutritional analysis and ecological data-gathering effort in history spanning over 1,700 farms, 10+ ecoregions, and decades of soil, crop, and livestock data including the largest comprehensive nutritional nutritional analysis gathering data on over 16,000 phytonutrients alone. Dr. Lundgren tackles hard questions: What is healthy food? How much nutritional value do we have in our food today? How much should we have? How much is possible? Regenerative systems are handily outperforming conventional in nutrient density, pest control, and profitability and he's following thousands of farms and gathering before and after data when they are converting from conventional to regenerative methods. He's doing the hard work and proving it works.
