The project&#8217;s goal is to support the transition to a more regenerative and organic agriculture by designing events, workshops, and online learning modules tailored to real needs. The insights presented here come directly from farmers and agricultural professionals in Southern Italy \u2014 their challenges, their dreams, and their readiness for change. Who took part? The majority of respondents are active farmers who produce and sell their own crops, especially olives, vegetables, and fruit trees. A smaller group includes agronomists, consultants, and those working in agricultural supply chains. What emerges clearly from the data is a strong connection to the land and a preference for tools that are practical, low-impact, and suited to small- to medium-scale production. Here\u2019s what they use most to work their fields: Manual tools are incredibly common but hand hoes (zappa manuale) is the undisputed protagonist. Small-scale mechanization is also popular, with many relying on rototillers (fresa), flail mower (trincia)\u00a0and motor hoes (motozappa) to manage soil and residues. Some are experimenting with regenerative tools like the grelinette (broadfork) \u2014 a sign of growing interest in soil-friendly methods. A handful mentioned working entirely by hand, showing the persistence of manual labor and traditional methods in the region. This tool diversity reflects both the constraints and creativity of farming in Southern Italy \u2014 where innovation often coexists with resilience and a deep-rooted sense of place. \u00a0 What Worries Farmers the Most? Participants expressed strong concern about the long-term sustainability of current agricultural practices. The top concern? The impact of chemical substances (particularly fertilizers and pesticides) on both soil health and food quality. Other recurring themes include nutrient loss in food and economic pressure from input costs. What They Believe (and What They Don\u2019t) Farmers were asked to rank their level of agreement (from 1 to 5) with several key statements. Here\u2019s what stood out: Soil health is crucial: Nearly all respondents gave the highest score to the statement \u201cSoil health is one of the most important factors for producing nutritious food\u201d (average score: 4.8). Many believe that food quality has declined over the last two decades due to industrial practices. Interestingly, most do not believe the cost of synthetic inputs is justified by their results (average score: 1.7). What Motivates Change? When asked what might convince them to adopt more sustainable methods, participants cited: Environmental benefits (better soil, cleaner water), Economic incentives (subsidies or reduced input costs), and Greater knowledge and support. Barriers included lack of technical knowledge, access to natural inputs, and market uncertainty for sustainable products. What They Want to Learn The good news? Interest in learning is strong: 73% want to improve soil health 49% are eager to learn about composting and natural fertilization 44% want to boost profitability with sustainable practices 44% also want tools to manage pests and diseases naturally There\u2019s a growing movement toward knowledge-based, regenerative farming \u2014 and farmers are ready to lead it. Final Thoughts The message is clear: farmers in Southern Italy are ready for change, but they need support, knowledge, and community to make that transition confidently. They\u2019re aware of the problems, they value their land, and they\u2019re open to solutions that respect both tradition and ecology. That\u2019s exactly why we\u2019re organizing the Regenerative Agriculture Workshop on June 12\u201313. Whether you\u2019re a farmer, agronomist, or simply curious about healthier and more sustainable ways of working the land, this two-day workshop is for you. The event blends theory and hands-on experience, covering topics like: Understanding soil microbiology Production of biofertilizers Tools and techniques for low-input, high-resilience systems You\u2019ll get to see practices in action, exchange with other growers, and go home with real strategies you can apply immediately.
