The Global Farm
Feeding the world without destroying the planet
The mission is to create an online resource that enables everyone around the world to make productive use of their land..from small gardens to large scale regenerative farming
Imagine combining knowledge from the latest technologies with ancient indigenous wisdom, the worlds greatest regenerative agriculturalists with the science emerging from academic institutions - and developing an open access platform that allows everyone to create productive ecosystems that feed the world and nourish the planet.
The Ark Global Farm is building that resource.
Post war farming has been driven by the concept that soil is not important - all we need to grow food and farm animals can be delivered by factories - fertilisers, herbicides, pesticides and processed animal feeds all drive a system designed to feed billions at the lowest possible economic cost
Decades later we are learning the folly of that agenda.
Degraded landscapes delivering lower and lower yields whilst demanding more and more artificial input.
Soils that neither retain water in drought nor absorb water in flood.
Lack of landscape resilience to the impact of climate change impacting the security of farming life
Decades of farmers being exploited and driven to the edge of economic ruin by a food system that neither respect farmers nor the source of where our food comes from
It is a broken system
The Ark 2030 Global Farm team is developing the technology and Resources to deliver the Global Farm Platform to the world in 2022.
This is the most effective way that we can create a truly global impact with our understanding of how we need to redesign food systems
Your funding will help to accelerate the scale and depth of the programme so that we can provide critical knowledge and information for everyone on planet earth who wishes to make a difference
