What are the opportunities and challenges for financing the transition to Net Zero agriculture?
This panel will discuss the business case for Net Zero agriculture, examining the best possible ways to support agriculture’s transition towards positive climate action. Agribusinesses are increasingly faced with the urgent need to develop innovative and ethical solutions to maintain a balance between food security and environmentally sustainable practices in the face of climate change. The panellists will examine the changing role of agribusinesses, as well as banks and financial institutions, in the climate debate, all while keeping stakeholder interests of farmers, consumers and the environment into consideration.
