This side-by-side infographic contrasts the impacts of bare-soil management versus cover-crop-based regenerative practices on soil health



 This side-by-side infographic contrasts the impacts of bare-soil management versus cover-crop-based regenerative practices on soil health: the left “Degenerative” panel shows a freshly tilled, exposed field with upward arrows denoting CO₂ release and water evaporation—conditions that accelerate organic-matter loss, erosion and moisture depletion—whereas the right “Regenerative” panel depicts a densely living cover-crop stand with downward arrows illustrating enhanced CO₂ sequestration and water infiltration. By maintaining living roots and surface cover, this approach reverses degradation, rebuilds soil structure and fertility, and conserves water, demonstrating how cover crops can transform unproductive ground into a resilient, carbon-rich agroecosystem.
