Hello Eco-Community,
I’m reaching out to tap into the collective wisdom of this group. I’ll soon be giving a presentation in Guatemala to representatives from several potato cooperatives, focused on regenerative potato cultivation and pathways for transitioning away from conventional systems.
I’d love to highlight examples from around the world—farms, cooperatives, or projects—where potatoes are being grown using regenerative approaches. This could include practices such as:
- Cover crops and crop rotations with potatoes
- Soil fertility management through compost, green manures, or bio-inputs
- Reduced tillage approaches
- Integrated pest management with ecological methods
- Landscape or watershed approaches connected to potato production
If you know of initiatives, case studies, or even personal experiences worth sharing, I’d be very grateful. These stories can help inspire Guatemalan farmers who are beginning to explore regenerative practices in potato production.
Thank you so much in advance for your insights and examples!
Warmly,
Rafael
