REGENERATIVE FARMING AND THE FUTURE OF AGRIBUSINESS

RADIUS is pleased to invite you to the panel discussion REGENERATIVE FARMING AND THE FUTURE OF AGRIBUSINESS. The panel discussion will take place on Sunday the 20th of August and is a part of a series of closing events for the current exhibition THE GLASS CITY. Revolving around regenerative forms of agri- and horticulture, the panel will bring together representatives of several initiatives in order to discuss alternatives to monoculture, possibilities for making horti- and permaculture more sustainable, as well as engage in a public discussion around economic models related to agriculture. 

SPEAKER BIOGRAPHIES
