Webinar: Moving Forward: Transitioning from Traditional to Regenerative Agriculture

Join SDSPA on Dec. 10, 2024 to learn about Eric Fuchs’s journey into regenerative ag and use of Holistic Planned Grazing on his diversified livestock operation.

Eric Fuchs lives in Southeast Missouri on a diversified livestock operation where he raises hair sheep and contract grazes all classes of cattle. He has been using Holistic Planned Grazing for over eight years and has had a managed grazing system on his operation for more than 20 years. After implementing regenerative principles and practices on my own operation for several years, I saw how these could also help save our waterways, provide clean safe reliable drinking water, and increase profitability. It became a passion of mine to let others know there were practical solutions to these problems, and that the same techniques used to make my own operation sustainable and profitable, could be used on a large scale to clean up our drinking water. My passion now is to share these solutions with others. Through my experience as a regenerative farmer and source water specialist, I bring an informed perspective on the current and future scene of regulations to communities, businesses, and individuals—while offering solutions to improve drinking water quality and mitigate the need for additional burdensome regulations, all while saving money.
