This review synthesizes regenerative agricultural practices applicable to cotton production in the semi-arid Texas High Plains. Practices like no-tillage, cover cropping, crop rotation, and crop-livestock integration are examined for their potential to enhance carbon sequestration, soil water conservation, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, amidst threats from climate change and groundwater depletion. Economic viability is emphasized as critical for adoption.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Highlights Regenerative agriculture needs to be defined within the context of a region, and the associated agricultural practices must be regionally optimized. The economic viability of regenerative practices must be a primary consideration for the success of production agricultural systems. Many opportunities exist for successfully implementing regenerative practices in cotton production systems across the semi-arid Texas High Plains. ABSTRACT. For the Texas High Plains (THP), regenerative agriculture represents a natural progression in conservation and system resiliency. Regenerative agriculture encompasses a broader theme of conservation that includes community-level longevity and economic viability, all while promoting concurrent environmental stewardship. The THP represents a vast region of agricultural production, representing a range of agricultural commodities across semi-arid environments with varying levels of precipitation. Including some of the most profitable cotton-producing counties in the United States, the THP produces approximately 30% of the country’s annual cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) crop and 30% of its fed cattle (Johnson et al., 2013). However, the future agricultural viability and subsequent economic longevity of the region are threatened by two concurrent anthropogenic disasters, global climate change and groundwater withdrawal. With the region’s future at risk, opportunities exist to implement regenerative agricultural practices to increase the sustainability of cotton agroecosystems as producers transition into deficit-irrigated or dryland production systems. Regenerative practices, such as no-tillage, cover cropping, crop rotations, and integrated crop-animal grazing systems, provide prospective solutions that increase carbon sequestration, increase soil water conservation, improve soil health, and reduce net emissions of greenhouse gases. This review encompasses a range of regenerative agricultural practices that may be beneficial to cotton production across the THP region, including the Southern High Plains, Northern High Plains, and Rolling Plains. Keywords: Cotton, Cover cropping, Crop rotation, Crop-livestock integration, Regenerative agriculture, Semi-arid, Texas high plains.
