Significance
This pressure has cast a spotlight on the potential of ‘biodynamic agriculture' to help these industries minimise their environmental damage, specifically by addressing water scarcity and soil degradation issues, and minimising the use of antibiotics in livestock farming.
Impacts
Products produced through regenerative agriculture raise the cost of final items, limiting their mass appeal.
The dramatic rise in the consumption of ultra-fast fashion products damages the industry’s drive towards sustainability.
European countries will lead on the adoption of biodynamic agriculture.
