With Robyn we dive deeper into what kind of systems thinking is necessary to design investment products that really help farmers to transition towards regen ag (for instance a loan where the interest payments are tied to measurable changes in soil health). We discuss also why farmers should be involved in every conversation and should be on the board on any food, agriculture, agtech, but honestly any company. Other topics of the conversation: loan interest connected to soil health and costs of capital.
