Agriculture is how we help people and the planet thrive
We believe that many of the solutions to challenges facing people and the planet today can be found in the very place our food system begins: agriculture. Agriculture can be a force for good. We aim to empower farmers and workers, support our communities, promote safe and fair working conditions, and ensure food is nutritious and plentiful for all.
We’re also driving progress on priorities that safeguard our planet and ensure we’re operating our business in a sustainable way. Through our work with key partners, collaborative initiatives with our customers and constantly innovating the products and services we offer, we are committed to creating impactful change that leverages our scale of operations and reach.
By empowering farming communities, protecting land and regenerating our soils, we’ll nourish this growing population – safely, responsibly and sustainably.
Nourishing the World While Protecting the Planet
We're committing $30 million to source innovative ideas to protect forests and native vegetation in Brazil. We openly call on others to join us in this commitment.
