Description: Investors are increasingly concerned about the future of our food system and our food companies. Agricultural supply chains face myriad challenges in the current industrial, chemical-intensive model. Increasing climate shocks, threats to worker health and safety, soil degradation, farmer economic hardship, and declining pollinator health all represent risks to long-term resilience and food availability.
To build a more resilient food system, companies will need to deploy a range of solutions such as regenerative agriculture methods, reduction of synthetic inputs, and other sustainable practices.
In this webinar, General Mills and Sysco will share their experiences building more resilient and sustainable agricultural supply chains.
