🌱 Can European agriculture balance economic viability and environmental sustainability? 🌍 European agriculture is at a critical juncture, facing the two-pronged challenge of maintaining economic viability while ensuring environmental sustainability. In our recent blog, we sought to explore how initiatives such as the European Green Deal, farm-to-fork strategies, and regenerative agriculture practices can help achieve this balance. Share your views with us on how we can create a sustainable and prosperous agricultural sector that benefits both people and the planet. 🌾🌿 Read the full blog here for details https://lnkd.in/gRFgETFN #Sustainability #Agriculture #EuropeanGreenDeal #FarmToFork #RegenerativeAgriculture #EnvironmentalSustainability #EconomicGrowth

I have a great appreciation for GIZ, facilitating me to attend Sustainable Agriculture training @Addis Abeba; #Agriculture Sustainability implies Economic, Social, and Environmental sustainability. Ethical business should be applied while farming, as long as #Agriculture is #business, Applying business methods and theories to the agricultural industry can help to reduce costs, increase revenues, and ensure that farm or food products are developed and supplied efficiently.

Agriculture has a greater impact on the environment than any other human activity. It uses more land than any other human activity, resulting in deforestation and the loss of biodiversity, it uses more water -- around 70% of freshwater is used globally -- and it is responsible for around 24% of greenhouse gas emissions. Check this insightful summary of sustainability in agriculture by my colleague Dr Jonathan Shoham. Here’s the link: https://lnkd.in/eSm3UNBy
Sustainable agriculture and crop inputs Agriculture has a larger environmental footprint than any other human activity, whether it be on land and biodiversity, water or the atmosphere. A new white paper from S&P Global provides a framework for how the main agricultural inputs – seeds, fertilizer and crop protection – can contribute to agricultural sustainability, both through mitigation of the environmental impact and adaptation to it. A major pathway through which all three inputs contribute is via the yield gains they provide, whether from application of current best practice or innovation, resulting in lower environmental impact per unit of output, for example more ‘crop per drop’. Additionally, there are many input-specific strategies which can be adopted to minimize impact, such as increased production of ‘green ammonia’.

In today’s world, where sustainable agriculture is gaining momentum as a solution to climate challenges, it is important to integrate improved technologies and environmentally- friendly agricultural inputs that can enhance soil health, help farmers optimize their resources, and reduce environmental impact. Input supply is critical in the agricultural value chain, as it ensures that farmers have access to essential resources for successful farming. Reliable and timely agricultural inputs directly impact productivity and farm profitability. However, when input supply is inefficient or delayed, the effects can ripple through the entire agricultural system—causing reduced yields, increased costs, and missed market opportunities. As we work towards building a more resilient agricultural sector, improving input supply systems remains a top priority to unlock higher productivity, sustainable practices, and overall success for farmers and agribusinesses alike. #Day5AgriculturalInnovationSeries #Technology #Innovation #Sustainability #DissectingAgriculturalValueChain
