Closed-loop systems, waste reduction, and efficient resource utilization are key components of circular agriculture (CA) and circular bioeconomy (CB) in agriculture and bio-based industries. Sustainable farming practices and a bio-based economy are linked by the integration of CA and CB, which forms a circular agriculture bioeconomy (CAB). Expanding on this integration, regenerative agriculture bioeconomy (RAB) embraces waste minimization, enhancement of soil health and biodiversity, restoration of degraded ecosystems, and self-sustaining renewability. These practices can maintain the sustainability and resilience of agricultural and economic systems across scales. However, high initial costs, limited policy, and lack of general awareness cast a shadow over RAB’s effectiveness. These barriers can be overcome by policy reforms, innovative technology, and financial incentives. This chapter addresses the definition, solutions, and opportunities associated with RAB practices in comparison with CA and CB.

摘要

Closed-loop systems, waste reduction, and efficient resource utilization are key components of circular agriculture (CA) and circular bioeconomy (CB) in agriculture and bio-based industries. Sustainable farming practices and a bio-based economy are linked by the integration of CA and CB, which forms a circular agriculture bioeconomy (CAB). Expanding on this integration, regenerative agriculture bioeconomy (RAB) embraces waste minimization, enhancement of soil health and biodiversity, restoration of degraded ecosystems, and self-sustaining renewability. These practices can maintain the sustainability and resilience of agricultural and economic systems across scales. However, high initial costs, limited policy, and lack of general awareness cast a shadow over RAB’s effectiveness. These barriers can be overcome by policy reforms, innovative technology, and financial incentives. This chapter addresses the definition, solutions, and opportunities associated with RAB practices in comparison with CA and CB.
