Regenerative Agriculture for Climate Adaptation & Economic Resilience

Dr. Anil K. Bhargava will discuss his recent work on regenerative agriculture, aimed at achieving the triple win of social, environmental, and economic benefits to low-income agriculture and food producers in developing countries, who are suffering disproportionately from recent climate change and shocks. As an economist, Dr. Bhargava has worked on all sides of this issue--from extended field work in rural communities and NGO and international organization consultancies to sustainable finance and corporate social responsibility positions and publishing in leading academic journals. His newest project in India brings together artificial intelligence and remote-sensing data with the economics and financing of farmer-led transitions from conventional to regenerative agriculture.
