At Textile Exchange, we believe that a transition to regenerative agriculture is fundamental to the long-term health of the fashion and textile industry, playing a key role in helping farmers develop more resilient systems. But with interest in regenerative agriculture fast gaining momentum, there is no one-size-fits-all approach, and the concept is nuanced.
Sponsored by Kering, J.Crew and Madewell, and CottonConnect, the Regenerative Agriculture Landscape Analysis is the first report that gives the fashion and textile industry a framework and toolkit to credibly understand, implement and describe the benefits of work in this space. It emphasizes regenerative agriculture’s roots in Indigenous and Native practices and promotes a holistic approach that puts humans and ecosystems at the center.
