In this episode of the Global Farmer Voices Podcast, we continue celebrating the Global Farmer Network’s 25th anniversary by highlighting climate solutions already happening on farms around the world. Brazilian farmer Richard Franke Dijkstra shares his family’s remarkable journey, from immigrating to Brazil after World War II, to pioneering one of the most successful no-till and soil-health systems in the world. Richard explains how regenerative practices, farmer-led research, and strong community networks have transformed Brazilian agriculture and helped producers store more carbon, reduce erosion, and increase productivity.With COP30 shining a spotlight on Brazil, Richard offers a grounded look at what sustainable agriculture really looks like directly from the field.To learn more about the Global Farmer Network and its mission, visit globalfarmernetwork.org.
