Agriculture Resilience
A SHARED GOAL FOR A NEW ERA
There is a common goal that unites the agricultural supply chain — from seed to shelf, from producer to consumer. A goal that allows us to make the greatest impact possible, assuring our food supply and the future of our planet.
That goal is resilience.
That goal is resilience.
Leaders in Agriculture Resilience
Jay Watson
Regenerative Agriculture Director
We want to stand for the broader good. That means investing in broader systemic issues, trying to address those, realizing the benefits will accrue to many organizations, General Mills included.
Heather Tansey
VP Environmental Sustainability
No one company can do it alone. We need to partner with farmers at the beginning of the supply chain, all the way through to our downstream customers.
Kim Sundy
Senior Director of Sustainability
We know that we have to be responsible stewards of the Earth. Not only is it good for business, but it’s really good for the environment and customers and consumers. Our company is committed to nurturing the planet, and building a resilient supply chain is a big part of that objective.

Why Now?
1/3 of emissions
Nearly one third of global GHG emissions come from our food systems, according to nature food and Our World in Data. Food production has contributed significantly to climate change — and many of those contributions are the result of agricultural activity.

90% scope 3
Upwards of 90% of an agrifood company’s emissions are scope 3 emissions. Building resilient supply chains directly addresses these emissions and empowers companies to reach climate goals quicker.

23% don't report
Nearly a quarter of corporate leaders choose not to report progress against climate goals, due to lack of transparency in emissions accounting and progress tracking.

<7 harvests to act
After this cropping season, we have only 6 harvests to change the trajectory of our climate. With so many emissions entwined in food production (90% of scope 3, and 1/3 of overall emissions), it’s our responsibility to evolve.

Entering the era of Agriculture Resilience
today's system
Fragmented
Collaboration across industry stakeholders is rare. One-off projects and investments are common, and there’s a lack of alignment among industry standards.
today's system
Difficult to measure
Outcomes measurement for ag intervention is inaccurate, non-transparent and rarely compliant with industry standards. The burden of data collection rests on producers.
today's system
Difficult to scale
Projects are not scalable across crops and regions. Farming programs are structured differently for different commodities, and projects align with different standards.
a new era
Cooperative
Stakeholders work towards progress across the supply chain with aligned goals. With industry progress, standards regulate marketplaces for ecosystems outcomes.
a new era
Measurable
Outcomes measurement for ag intervention is transparent and accurate. Reports are in alignment with industry standards and generate action for companies.
a new era
Scalable
Projects are scalable across crops and regions, making emissions reduction programs and new practice implementation effective.
Together we're building a resilient future
No matter where you are in your sustainability journey, Regrow can be your partner in accelerating programs, scaling impact and meeting climate goals. Establishing a resilient supply chain is a cycle, not a project. Regrow empowers each step of this cycle – and together, we’ll elevate that cycle to meet your future needs.
