How do you explain holism in the third person and how it relates to regenerative agriculture using Sewell's characteristics for ecological thinking and bateson categories of learning luisi and capras theories on holism and bortofts theory on holism.
Any examples from the world which can be replicated here in Victoria Australia.
Any comments and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards,
I will try to answer to the best of what i know about Holism. To me its about considering 'all' factors or all related factors into any context. In other words, dont just look at something singularly (as one) but to understand that it is dependant on other factors or part of a larger system. Therefore Holism and Holistic are synonymous. In terms of regenerative agriculture, focus on all of the factors needed to promote a strong regenerative agricultural system, rather than focusing on just one aspect/factor.
Regenerative Agriculture is a system of farming principles and practices that increases biodiversity, enriches soils, improves watersheds, and enhances ecosystem services. Regenerative Agriculture aims to capture carbon in soil and aboveground biomass, reversing current global trends of atmospheric accumulation.
The concept usually involves three aspects, namely environmental, economic and social, in formulating corresponding goals and ways of achieving them. ... Defining socially rational solutions require holistic approach to agriculture sustainable development.
Holism is pleased to have offered assistance in the development of the formal Regenerative Agriculture definition that has just been released by the Regenerative Agriculture Initiative at California State University at Chico as well as the Carbon Underground and 56 other leading organizations from over 100 countries working in this critical field.
Holistic Management (HM) is a grazing practice that typically uses high-intensity rotation of animals through many paddocks, continually adapted through planning and monitoring. Despite widespread disagreement about the environmental and production benefits of HM, researchers from both sides of that debate seem to agree that its emphasis on goal-setting, complexity, adaptivity and strategic decision-making are valuable.
