Larry O’Connor on Regenerative Agriculture

OWC's Larry O'Connor, and Other World Computing, are committed to helping us understand regenerative agriculture. He explains why in this interview with host, Cirina Catania. Larry O’Connor is more than the founder and CEO of Other World Computing. He donates much of his time and a sizable percentage of the profits from OWC’s business endeavors on issues that he believes need to be addressed in the world. He helps the planet and everyone and everything that inhabits it with his initiatives in support of non-profits such as "Kiss the Ground," and Charity Water. We enjoyed this interview because it is a discourse on regenerative agriculture, which is a new way to farm and which the movie exec produced by Larry, “Kiss the Ground,” highlighted during and following its release. A new sequel, “Common Ground,” has recently been released and we encourage you to search for it in your neighborhoods or by going to Kisstheground.com for more information. What is regenerative agriculture and why is it important to all of us?  This kind of subject is always interesting, and as we dig further, we find that perhaps the old way of tilling the soil may very well NOT be the best for soil health. This type of farming places emphasis on that health, which in turn produces more food with high nutritional value. According to proponents of this theory, more carbon is stored in the ground, and biodiversity flourishes. That is good for the farmers, for us, and for Mother Earth. So, take a break from your tech tasks, from scrolling, and listen in to one of our country’s top business entrepreneurs as he discusses why he gets involved in films such as “Kiss the Ground,” and “Common Ground.” Tune in for another fascinating interview with OWC’s Larry O’Connor.
