SUMMARY:Science & the Transformation of Agriculture
DESCRIPTION:Re-imagining Agriculture with Regenerative Principles and Independent\, Farmer-driven Research \nFeaturing Dr. Jonathan Lundgren\, Blue Dasher Farm & the Ecdysis Foundation \nIn an increasingly complex and inter-related world\, systemic challenges\, such as climate change\, can be daunting. Fortunately\, nature–itself a highly complex web of relationships–holds answers. Likewise\, farmers\, those who actually tend nature\, often develop valuable insights working within the complexity of agriculture. Cultivating a more resilient\, regenerative agriculture will require a deeper awareness of and appreciation for lessons of the “field” and those who work it. \nThis lecture will explore the role of cutting-edge science in addressing problems faced by farmers\, ranchers and bee keepers through applied ecological research\, guided citizen science\, innovative partnerships and peer-to-peer learning. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Lundgren is an agroecologist and entomologist\, Director of the ECDYSIS Foundation\, and CEO for Blue Dasher Farm. Lundgren’s research and education programs focus on assessing the ecological risk of pest management strategies and developing long-term solutions for regenerative food systems. \nSuggested donation of $5 to $10 at the door. First come\, first serve. \nBrought you by Cal Poly Center for Sustainability \n### \nThis talk is a pre-conference special event leading up to the 32nd annual California Small Farm Conference. To learn more about the full conference\, taking place the following days\, Feb 28 & 29 in Paso Robles\, please visit http://www.casmallfarmconference.com
