“ At the same time, we aim to improve soil health, biodiversity, water stewardship, carbon reduction and farmer resilience. Today, those programmes span barley in Ireland, wheat and barley in the UK, agave in Mexico and broken rice in India, with an ambition to expand to ten collaborative sourcing landscapes by 2030.
“ Ultimately, we view regenerative agriculture as a resilience strategy as much as a decarbonisation strategy. Healthier soils, improved water retention and more biodiverse landscapes help farmers and our supply chain to be more resilient to drought, flooding and other climaterelated risks that increasingly threaten key crops such as barley, wheat and agave.”
