Global Farmers Unite for Regenerative Agriculture Declaration

Farmer Led Effort Promotes Soil Health and Community Values

The Global Farmer Network (GFN) announces that over 1,000 farmers from 60+ countries have signed the Regenerative Agriculture: A Farmers’ Declaration. This declaration is created by farmers, for farmers, emphasizing sustainable farming values across the globe.

The declaration is rooted in shared outcomes such as improving soil health, protecting water, boosting biodiversity, and ensuring the dignity and prosperity of rural communities. It also values science, technology, traditional knowledge, and peer-to-peer learning to strengthen agriculture.

What sets this declaration apart is its farmer-first approach. Unlike top-down policies or supply chain demands, it reflects real-world experiences and values of global farmers. It avoids strict definitions and instead promotes adaptable principles based on local conditions, crop types, and community needs.

The declaration was created over three days by eight farmers from five continents, including farmers from the U.S., India, France, Kenya, Brazil, Denmark, Argentina, and the Netherlands. These diverse leaders worked together to write a statement of shared values for regenerative agriculture.

This effort is not about labels or certifications but about uniting farmers under a common vision for sustainable agriculture. It invites farmers everywhere to take part, no matter their size or region.

The GFN encourages everyone to read, sign, and share the declaration to support the global farming community. The movement aims to strengthen dialogue and action for a better agricultural future.
