Soil degradation, declining fertility, and increasing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture threaten global food security and climate goals. Agri-carbon and regenerative land management approaches restore soil health, enhance carbon sequestration, improve water retention, and increase farm resilience. This domain equips learners to apply soil carbon accounting, regenerative practices, agroecology, remote sensing, and decision-support tools for sustainable land management. Students gain practical skills in soil health assessment, carbon modeling, regenerative cropping systems, precision agriculture, and policy design for climate-smart agriculture.
