Regenerative Standards

In their 2020 report on Regenerative Standards, "Mapping the Regenerative Landscape," the Climate Collaborative analyzed three certification standards for regenerative agriculture[1]:

Will Harris of White Oak Pastures connects all three of these standards as member of:

  • Soil Carbon Initiative Committee of Experts
  • Regenerative Organic Alliance Board of Directors

with White Oak Pastures' grass-fed beef also featuring at the beginning of the Savory Institute presentation (p. 41).

As a major supplier for General Mills, which funds the Climate Collaborative, White Oak Pastures is "not just a small local farm, but actually part of a powerful and massive multinational company, and an important arm of its branding and marketing." Its claim to produce "carbon-negative beef" through regenerative grazing has been conclusively disproven, after General Mills-funded research was found to have "significant lapses that grossly exaggerate or misrepresent the true SOC sequestration capacity of their farming techniques."
