Regenerative agriculture has the potential to have a powerful beneficial impact on a number of these global concerns. Regenerative agriculture, on the other hand, has the potential to strengthen supply chains, restore biodiversity, equitably distribute land value and access, and enable farmers, businesses, and communities to prosper. In this review article we focus on how Regenerative agriculture works as fixing degraded land by zero tillage, less chemical application and strengthen agriculture by the means of nature based resources
