Details

With only nine harvests left until 2030, the moment to act is now, transforming agricultural systems to deliver positive change is crucial.

A complete remodeling of the structure of our current global agricultural model is necessary to ensure the population remains fed and to safeguard economic prosperity. This transformation is only feasible through the combined participation of all stakeholders. A new strategy of pre-competitive collaborative action from multiple actors will be key to unlocking change and driving impact at scale.
