Agriculture

Our supply chain connects us to communities around the world. This gives us the chance to make a positive impact by moving towards regenerative agricultural farming and supporting the farmers in our supply chain with improved farming methods.

Sustainable farming practices

Agriculture forms a large part of our scope 3 emissions. We’re building the resilience of our supply chain by supporting farmers in being more resource-efficient and adopting regenerative practices to reduce the impacts of climate change.

Moving towards regenerative agricultural sourcing

We’re focusing our regenerative agriculture efforts on the key raw materials for our products. We’re doing this across specific geographies to support farmers in becoming more resilient and resource-efficient while reducing the impact of farming on the environment. We’re investing, developing and scaling collaborative cross-industry opportunities in partnership with other businesses, governments and NGOs. We want to design a supply network that benefits our communities, empowers farmers to increase resource efficiency, and responds to climate change.

Taking a geography-based approach

We have launched five regenerative agriculture programmes across key sourcing regions, covering agave, broken rice, barley and wheat. We now aim to deliver 10 collaborative programmes by 2030, addressing key climate, nature and water risks.

Scaling progress will require greater collaboration across the value chain, stronger evidence and monitoring, and new approaches to financing.
