In this interview I'm joined by Taimur Malik to hear about the journey that brought him to founding Drawdown Farm in Pakistan, and the work they're doing there to produce foods regeneratively despite the challenges of desert soils and an arid climate.Taimur's background is not in farming. His move to develop regenerative agriculture in Pakistan is his response to having his eyes opened to the mix of crises surrounding him in the world; from climate to biodiversity loss, and even the roots of civil war.After much dedicated research the conclusion that he reached was that our most impactful solution is regenerative agriculture.I feel hugely inspired by the work that has been done here - not only in the successful regeneration of soils and cultivation of crops (including bananas which were thought impossible to grow in the Thal Desert); all of which you'll hear about towards the latter half of the discussion.But also by the range of research and influences that have guided Taimur in his learning, it's an incredibly varied set of wisdom that's been brought together and somehow provided clarity and focus rather than conflicting ideas.What a wonderful place we're in as a world to have so much information available to us, and I hope you'll feel as uplifted and motivated as I do by this story that demonstrates quite clearly that we have the knowledge we need to regenerate!And with the right approach, using many tools side by side Taimur concludes that a transition to regenerative agriculture can actually be really quick!He's very articulate at walking you through his journey so you'll hear very little from me with the questioning through this one. I hope you'll enjoy having a listen through.Episode Links: Learn more at Taimur's website: https://www.drawdownfarm.com/Find this episode on the We Are Carbon website: https://www.wearecarbon.earth/podcast-episode/regenerative-agriculture-pakistan/
