In this episode, John interviews David Montgomery, Professor of
Geomorphology at the University of Washington. John and David discuss
soil regeneration at length, pulling from David’s experience developing
new topsoil in dead, stony ground and his deep dive into the science
behind it.
David came to the field of regenerative agriculture from a unique
position. As a geologist studying erosion, he became curious about
agricultural impacts on soils.
When David set out to write his first book, Dirt: The Erosion of
Civilizations, he imagined it would tie the subject of landscape
formation over millennia to how soil erosion affected ancient
civilizations. He ended up writing about the history of farming, because
that's where soil erosion and degradation connects back to human
societies. Spending more than a decade looking at how agriculture has
influenced soil loss resulted in an epiphany that led him to see
regenerative agriculture as the solution to historically degenerative
agricultural problems.
