Regernerative Agriculture
Investing in the Future of Farming, Soil, and Sustainability
At Zion Ventures, Regenerative Agriculture is more than a trend — it’s the foundation of a more sustainable and profitable agricultural future. We invest in the businesses, technologies, and practices that restore ecosystems, revitalize soil health, and build climate-resilient food systems that feed both people and planet.
What Is Regenerative Agriculture?
Regenerative Agriculture refers to a suite of farming practices designed to regenerate topsoil, increase biodiversity, improve water retention, and strengthen ecosystems — all while delivering higher nutritional yields and reducing dependency on synthetic inputs.
Unlike conventional or even sustainable methods, regenerative systems aim to restore nature while remaining economically productive and scalable.

The Profitability and Impact of Regenerative Agriculture
Regenerative agriculture is not only beneficial for the environment but also presents significant economic opportunities:
Increased Profitability
A study by Boston Consulting Group found that transitioning to regenerative agriculture can lead to a 120% increase in profitability, enhancing farmer livelihoods and economic resilience.
Growing Investment:
In the first quarter of 2025, regenerative agriculture and food systems attracted $1.17 billion in investments, with venture capital accounting for 46% of the deals.
Carbon Credit Potential:
Practices in regenerative agriculture can increase soil carbon sequestration, enabling farmers to earn carbon credits. The voluntary carbon credit market is projected to exceed $250 billion by 2050
Advancing Industrial Hemp and Plant Medicine Cultivation
We support initiatives that leverage the environmental benefits and versatile applications of hemp and cannabis, driving sustainable growth.
