REGRU: The Third-Generation Farmer Taking On Big Tech and Government Inaction with Grassroots Innovation
EDINBURGH, UNITED KINGDOM, June 3, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- As millions watch Clarkson's Farm witness the mounting pressures on UK agriculture, two paths have emerged from farming communities: some have turned to campaigning and activism, while others are quietly building the future of global agriculture from the soil up.
Rather than waiting for the government or big tech to address issues as pressing and globally significant as soil health, third-generation farmer Edmund Sutcliffe is taking matters into his own hands. Sutcliffe is building the underpinnings of a system: REGRU that can connect and empower farmers worldwide who are dedicated to doing right by their land, while giving consumers meaningful choice over their environmental impact.
'There's a silent crisis happening beneath our feet,' says Sutcliffe. 'Soil degradation affects every living creature on this planet, yet the systems needed to verify and reward regenerative farming simply don't exist. So we're building them — with farmers, for farmers.'
What makes REGRU possible is Autonomi, a revolutionary data network that mirrors how natural systems actually work, through distributed intelligence and self-organisation, much like how forests communicate through fungal networks, or how ant colonies govern themselves. Unlike the centralized internet controlled by big tech, Autonomi puts data sovereignty back in the hands of users, creating tamper-proof records of regenerative farming progress that farmers, consumers, and businesses can trust.
'Agriculture needs more than awareness — it needs infrastructure that supports regeneration and puts control back in farmers' hands,' explains David Irvine, the decentralization pioneer behind Autonomi. 'That's the power of networks inspired by nature itself.'
REGRU emerged from Impossible Futures, a community-driven incubator supporting breakthrough applications on the Autonomi network. By linking everyday purchases directly to verified regenerative farms, REGRU offers consumers the chance to vote with their wallets. Transforming cultural awareness into tangible action.
This is more than an app or platform: its farmer-led infrastructure for the future of food, or any plant or animal based goods. While the farming establishment debates policy and corporations chase profits, working farmers like Sutcliffe are behind the scenes building the systems that could reshape global agriculture from the soil up.
As the UK's farming story unfolds on screens, REGRU represents the next chapter: one where farmers have the tools to heal the earth without waiting for permission from above.
About REGRU: Founded by third generation farmer Edmund Sutcliffe, REGRU connects regenerative farmers directly with conscious consumers through verified soil health data on the Autonomi network.

Jeremy Clarkson bans pub customer over £24 pie complaint
Jeremy Clarkson has banned a customer from his Oxfordshire pub after they criticised menu prices online — with the TV presenter bluntly declaring they were no longer welcome. The former Top Gear host, 64, runs The Farmer's Dog in Oxfordshire, which serves produce from his Diddly Squat Farm. But when a customer recently took to social media to complain about paying £24 for a pie and vegetables, Clarkson didn't hold back. 'Thought @JeremyClarkson wanted an affordable pub for customers,' the diner posted on X. '£24 for pie and veg is a bit much.' Another user chimed in, suggesting that cheaper US beef imports would help lower prices, adding: 'Dead weight for British beef is far too expensive £6.89/kg for R4L down from the record high £6.98/kg earlier in the month. 'I can't wait till we get US beef cuts here because British beef industry is now taking the piss at those prices.' Clarkson's reply was short and sharp: 'You are now banned from the pub.' This isn't the first time the broadcaster has blacklisted individuals from his establishment. Past figures barred from his pub include Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Clarkson's former Top Gear co-hosts James May and Richard Hammond — though those bans are widely assumed to be tongue-in-cheek. Clarkson has previously defended the pub's prices by emphasising his commitment to using only British ingredients and supporting local farmers — even if that means omitting popular products like ketchup, coffee, lemonade or Coca-Cola from the menu. A Birmingham Live reporter made the surprising revelation while visiting the Oxfordshire pub — which Clarkson opened last August — for a Sunday roast. 'You can't have coffee, ketchup or lemonade — there's a sign outside the pub explaining they don't serve coffee or ketchup,' they said. 'The people at the table next to us asked for a latte but were politely refused. I also asked for a cider shandy when we arrived but staff explained they don't sell lemonade.' Last month, the Clarkson's Farm star revealed US comedian Ellen DeGeneres has visited the joint since relocating to the Cotswolds. The Ellen DeGeneres Show host, 66, fled the US after Donald Trump was elected President. She moved to an Oxfordshire village with her wife, Portia de Rossi, 51, in November. Clarkson praised the star, saying she was 'very friendly' and 'lovely' to the staff at his pub. 'She lives in the village where our pub is. Absolutely I welcome them all,' he told The Mirror. 'Everyone said she has been cancelled but she seemed nice when she came to the pub, the staff said she was very friendly and lovely. I am not going to believe what I read online. She seemed lovely.' Clarkson previously admitted his pub 'is a total disaster' due to theft, high parking charges and toilet mishaps. He revealed in his Times column in December that he is forced to spend £27,000 a month on parking and traffic marshals 'to keep the council off our back'.

Jim Marter: I will not be silent in the face of Colorado Terror Attack and Homeland Security Failures
Jim Marter: I will not be silent in the face of Colorado Terror Attack and Homeland Security Failures 'This attack on the innocent, including a Holocaust survivor, is a stark reminder that we need to demand secure borders and immigration enforcement or we'll face more terrorism and anti-Semitism.'— Jim Marter OSWEGO, IL, UNITED STATES, June 4, 2025 / / -- Today, Republican congressional candidate Jim Marter urged an end to the silence regarding the heinous terror attack in Boulder, Colorado over the weekend where eight individuals were injured during a peaceful pro-Israel rally. So far, Marter's opponent has made released no similar, official statement. The facts are, the suspect, Mohamed Soliman, reportedly used incendiary devices and a makeshift flamethrower in an act authorities are investigating as domestic terrorism, allegedly motivated by radical Islamic extremism and anti-Semitism. Among the victims were four men and four women. Two suffered severe burns and had to be airlifted to a burn unit. One of the victims is an 88-year-old Holocaust survivor, and another is a professor at the University of Colorado. 'This brutal attack on innocent Americans, including a Holocaust survivor, is a stark reminder of the threats posed by radical ideologies,' said Marter. 'It's deeply concerning that anyone could remain silent in the face of this act of terror and anti-Semitism.' Soliman, overstayed his visa and was therefore residing illegally here in the United States. Thankfully, he was apprehended at the scene and is currently facing multiple charges. 'Our elected officials have a duty to speak out against such heinous acts and to ensure the safety and security of all Americans,' Marter continued. 'Silence can put Americans at risk and embolden would-be terrorists. If we fail to stand strong in the face of terrorism and lawlessness, we'll see more of this,' said Marter. Jim Marter is a principled Republican for Congress in Illinois' 14th District. He is a small business owner, husband, and father, with a long record of serving the community, standing against violence and discrimination, and fighting for individual freedoms, secure borders, and accountable government.
