Sustainable Farm Simulator: transform conventional farm into regenerative agriculture model! Manage: soil health (the foundation - healthy soil = healthy crops), water conservation, biodiversity, carbon sequestration, profitability. Learn regenerative practices: (1) Cover cropping (protect soil, nitrogen fixation, biomass), (2) Crop rotation (break pest/disease cycles, balance nutrients), (3) No-till farming (preserve soil structure, carbon storage, microbiome), (4) Composting (close nutrient loop, organic matter), (5) Agroforestry (trees + crops, shade, windbreaks, diversity), (6) Integrated pest management (beneficial insects, not chemicals).

Contrast with industrial ag: monocultures (efficient but fragile, pest/disease vulnerable), heavy chemicals (short-term yields but soil degradation), till farming (erosion, carbon release). Organic certification: standards (no synthetic pesticides/fertilizers, non-GMO), costs (transition period 3 years, lower yields initially, premium prices compensate). Regenerative beyond organic: focus soil health improvement, carbon drawdown (climate solution!), ecosystem restoration.

Economics: lower input costs (no expensive chemicals), higher prices (organic premium 20-40%+), ecosystem services (pollination, erosion prevention, water filtration). Case studies: Gabe Brown (North Dakota regenerative pioneer), Kiss the Ground documentary, Polyface Farms (Joel Salatin). Climate impact: agriculture currently 25% emissions, but regenerative can sequester carbon (net negative!).
