De Loft: a catalyst for regenerative change
Decades of optimising our food system have led to a dramatic decrease in biodiversity, degrading returns and farmers that are completely stuck.
Our mission
To empower farmers and scale regenerative agriculture by co-creating a for-profit, purpose driven co-operative that will last at least 1,000 years. Making our food and ecosystems healthier, one regenerative farm at a time.
Our model
De Loft Co-operative acquires majority stakes in existing farms, the farmer pays off any outstanding (bank) debt, and together we build a future-proof, regenerative and profitable farm for the next 1,000 years.
Simple principles with a big impact on soil health
no-till or minimal tillage
keep the ground covered
diversity in plant and animal species
keep living roots in the soil as much as possible
integrate animals
grow nutrious food for human consumption
Ambition
With your help, by 2030 De Loft will be participating in 200 farms to improve soil health, biodiversity and nature, while producing healthy food on 7,500 hectares.
