A Comparative Analysis of the Popularity of Regenerative Agriculture Practices in Poland, Germany, and Belarus

Abstract

Regenerative agriculture is a holistic approach that restores soil health, biodiversity, and ecosystem services. Its practices include crop rotation, cover crops,reduced tillage,agroforestry,composting,and integrating livestock with crops. Despite its growing recognition, limited knowledge exists regarding its practical adoption in Central and EasternEurope. The research aim was to compare the prevalence of regenerative practices among farmers in Poland, Germany, and Belarus, countries in close geographical proximity, sharing very similar climatic conditions, but differing significantly in terms of culture, politics, and history.To achievethe research aim we designed a questionnaire-based survey.
