在农业食品学术领域，长期的争论集中在不同农业范式的经验适用性和概念效用上。这些往往与英国等国家对农业未来的考虑相吻合，因为英国等国家的重点已经从高投入、以产量为导向的生产力主义的中心原则转移。事实证明，替代诊断，特别是后生产力主义范式的概念，对于捕捉农业活动重组的广泛变化具有影响力。虽然围绕这些范式特征的争论仍在继续，但它们强调了围绕农业应该“为了什么”的更广泛（且不断变化的）问题中的不同争论，例如农业。环境“产品”是否应该比物质生产更受重视。将我们的论文置于这些正在进行的辩论中，我们利用农民的观点来研究分别位于英格兰东部和西南部的两个农民集群采用再生农业实践的情况。作为在英国脱欧后政策环境中处于有利地位的各种实践，我们探讨了如何将再生农业理解为寻求调和生产力主义和后生产力主义倾向。我们提请人们注意这些农民观点中的紧张、矛盾和不确定性，并强调：与出于更务实（经济）原因而采用再生农业相比，再生农业的环境和情感吸引力；再生农业和有机生产之间的相似之处和差异；以及农民在不确定的政策环境中利用的多种可信信息来源。我们通过反思需要在更长的理论谱系中更好地背景化和概念化当代对再生农业的兴趣来总结本文，其中农民自己的声音必须是核心。
Within agri-food scholarship, longstanding debates have focused on the empirical applicability and conceptual utility of differing agricultural paradigms. These have often dovetailed with considerations around the future of agriculture in countries such as the UK given a shift in emphasis away from the central tenets of a high-input, yield-oriented productivism. Alternative diagnoses, particularly in notions of a post-productivist paradigm, have proven influential in capturing broad changes in the restructuring of agricultural activity. Whilst debates around the characterisation of these paradigms continue, they highlight distinct contestations in broader (and shifting) questions around what agriculture should be ‘for’, e.g. whether environmental ‘goods’ should be valued more highly than material production. Situating our paper within these ongoing debates, we draw on farmer perspectives in examining the adoption of regenerative agricultural practices in two farmer clusters in the East and South-West of England respectively. As a diverse array of practices which appear favourably positioned in a post-Brexit policy environment, we explore the ways in which regenerative agriculture can be understood as seeking to reconcile productivist and post-productivist tendencies. Drawing attention to the tensions, contradictions and uncertainties at play in these farmer perspectives, we highlight: the environmental and emotional appeal of regenerative agriculture compared to its adoption for more pragmatic (economic) reasons; the parallels and differences between regenerative agriculture and organic production; and the multiple sources of trusted information drawn upon by farmers in an uncertain policy environment. We conclude the paper by reflecting on the need to better contextualise and conceptualise contemporary interest in regenerative agriculture within longer theoretical lineages, in which the voice of farmers themselves must be central.
