Abstract

Climate change increases unpredictable rainfall, soil deterioration, and agricultural resource constraints. Climate-resilient agribusiness models provide food security, farmer livelihoods, and environmental stability. Sustainable change may occur from regenerative farming, which promotes soil health, biodiversity, and carbon sequestration. This study synthesizes research on how regenerative farming might enhance agri-business design for climate resilience and economic and social gain. Minimum soil disturbance, continuous ground cover, crop rotations, and integrated animal management are researched to improve agricultural climate resilience. Our next topic is triple-bottom-line, circular economy, and systems approaches to agri-food value chains. Cover cropping, bio-fertilizers, agroforestry, composting, and precision input management are mapped and rated for yield stability, water efficiency, greenhouse-gas mitigation, and biodiversity enhancement using global and Indian literature. This data is used to study how new agri-business models embrace regenerative thinking. Examples include community-supported agriculture, farmer-producer firms, digital platforms for input–output optimization, and circular bio-economy ventures that turn agricultural waste into marketable resources. Carbon-credit markets and sustainability branding may boost rural entrepreneurship, income resilience, and green financing. The study also addresses financial limitations, policy support constraints, information fragmentation, and investor and policymaker regeneration benefit quantification obstacles. Conclusions include research needs and goals. Integrated assessment methods that encompass ecological, economic, and social performance, geospatial and AIoT technology for regenerative indicator monitoring, and regulatory systems that compensate farmers for ecosystem services are examples. Regenerative farming under strong agri-business models may combine profitability and ecological care, making agriculture a climate solution, according to studies. Farmers, companies, universities, and governments must work together to deliver this promise and secure a fair transition to resilient, low-carbon agri-food systems.
