Land
Cargill takes a holistic approach to sustainable land use to create lasting and impactful change for the people and places that grow our world’s food.
A holistic approach means that we must respond to the macro challenges of food security, climate change, resource depletion, and biodiversity loss while also addressing the needs of individual farmers and the natural ecosystems that are home to farming communities.
We focus our efforts on helping farmers transition to more sustainable farming practices because improving their productivity and resiliency is key to scalable impact across our supply chains. We also serve as a farmer advocate and connector to our customers, industry groups, NGOs, and governments, and as a collaborator as we work to advance sustainable land use. As such, Cargill is committed to eliminating deforestation and conversion for row crops in Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay by 2025 and deforestation globally by 2030.
