Bryan talks with Lincoln University Department of Agricultural Sciences senior lecturer Dr Pieter-Willem Hendriks about the university’s partnership with McCain’s to trial regenerative farming practices. The project is turning farmland into research beds for potatoes, carrots and more, using an eight-year rotation and a three-tier farmer system. The goal: collect real-world data, prove economic viability, and open the gates for farmers and students to see regenerative farming in action.
