Regenagri is pleased to have launched the world’s first global carbon insetting programme for agri-commodities.   Farms can now monetise their positive environmental impact through regenagri certification and insetting, to financially benefit farm businesses and decarbonise supply chains.   The programme has already signed up 10 organisations across six countries, covering over 871,000 acres and by the end of 2025 it is expected to reach 1.5m acres and generate more than 600,000 carbon insetting units.   For more details, please visit: https://lnkd.in/eDYKRDUS   #RegenerativeAgriculture #Sustainability #CarbonInsetting

Today at the AFS Forum, we engaged in several sessions highlighting critical steps towards building a more resilient and sustainable food system. 🌱 Some key insights from our discussions:   "Access to power is one of the top challenges for sustainable agri-food systems. However, there is significant potential for decentralized renewable energy solutions, which can address this power gap and benefit the entire value chain." - Sarah Alexander   "There is a disconnect between farming systems, landscapes, and agri-food systems. This needs to be the starting point for context-specific interventions." – Annemieke Beekmans   "Regenerative agriculture is crucial for preserving our ecosystems. To transform agri-food systems, we need bold public-private partnerships that enhance biodiversity, water management, resilience, equity, and sustainability for all." – Andre De Jager   "Through the Dutch Fund for Climate and Development's blended finance mechanisms, we are empowering smallholder farmers and developing business models that prioritize resilience and sustainability, paving the way for a stronger future for vulnerable communities." - Diane-Emmanuelle Potey SNV is committed to driving this transformation through partnerships, scalable solutions, and targeted incentives that create a more resilient and sustainable future for all. 🌍 #AFSForum2024 #InnovateAccelerateScale
