In this episode of the podcast, Radim Kužel interviews microbiologist Jaroslav Záhora from Mendel University in Brno about the importance of soil life and microorganisms in regenerative agriculture.
Discover the stories, experiences, and ideas shaping the future of regenerative agriculture through our podcast series. Hosted by Radim Kužel, each episode brings conversations with farmers, researchers, advisors, and other agricultural professionals who share their knowledge, challenges, and practical experience from the field.
The series explores how regenerative approaches are applied in real farming situations — from improving soil health and biodiversity to adapting farm management, building resilience, and creating sustainable systems. Through open discussions and real-world examples, the podcast highlights both the opportunities and challenges of the transition towards regenerative agriculture.
Whether you are a farmer looking for practical inspiration, an agricultural professional, or simply interested in how farming can become more sustainable, these conversations offer valuable insights from people actively working on the ground.
In this episode of the podcast, Radim Kužel interviews microbiologist Jaroslav Záhora from Mendel University in Brno about the importance of soil life and microorganisms in regenerative agriculture.
In this episode, we speak with Jan Basař from a family farm managing more than 500 hectares of land and raising a herd of Aberdeen Angus cattle. Jan shares practical regenerative agriculture practices and explains ways to prevent soil erosion and restore soil health. The farm also produces energy through a biogas plant and operates self-service vending machines with farm products.
This podcast episode introduces Rostislav Mátl of DVP Agro. You will learn what the transition to regenerative farming looks like in practice in South Moravia: the farm’s scale, year-round use of cover crops, strip-till and no-till techniques, controlled reduction of soil cultivation, compost and digestate as nutrient sources, and measurements showing improvements in soil biology.
In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel talks with Antoine Monier from Soufflet Agro about the practical use of cover crops in regenerative agriculture. The discussion explains why cover crops should be seen as an investment rather than a cost, highlighting their role in increasing organic matter, improving soil structure and supporting water and nutrient management.
In this episode of the ReGenerate podcast, host Radim Kužel speaks with Professor Maria Finckh from the University of Kassel about regenerative and organic farming practices, with a strong focus on potato production. The conversation draws on over 15 years of long-term field experiments exploring how mulch, compost, cover crops, and reduced tillage influence soil health, yields, and resilience to pests and diseases.
Radim Kužel speaks with Nicolas Haack about what regenerative agriculture really means and why it is difficult to define it accurately. The conversation highlights that it is not a fixed system but rather a way of thinking based on a deeper understanding of soil ecology, plant physiology, and the functioning of the whole agricultural ecosystem.
In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel speaks with Radim Kotrba from the Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences at CZU and the Research Institute of Animal Production about agroforestry and its synergy with regenerative agriculture.
In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel talks with Jakub Erler from the family farm Naše hospodářství in Osice. The conversation connects regenerative farming practices with livestock production, meat processing, and building a direct relationship with customers.
In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel talks with Jiří Marek from Farma Markových in the Znojmo region about combining regenerative agriculture with diversified cropping systems and on-farm processing.
In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel speaks with bioclimatologist Zdeněk Žalud from CzechGlobe about intensifying drought and the impact of climate change on agriculture.
Farma Částkov is an inspiring example of how regenerative agriculture, permaculture, and community-supported agriculture can thrive even in challenging dryland conditions. In this episode, Radim Kužel speaks with Simona Hrochová about her journey toward a farming system built on healthy soil, biodiversity, and respect for natural processes.
How can agriculture move beyond simply reducing its impact and become a force that actively restores natural systems? In this episode of the ReGENERATE podcast, Radim Kužel talks with Sébastien Roumegous, founder of Biospheres, a company supporting farmers and major food companies in implementing regenerative agriculture practices around the world.
