🌱 Supporting food security with climate action in Kenya 🌍 Agriterra is working in Kenya to improve food security through climate-friendly farming. Together with partners like Moyee Coffee, Agriterra is creating a low-carbon coffee supply chain that uses bio-fertilisers, compost, and sustainable farming to lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and help with rising synthetic fertiliser costs. 💡 Traditional coffee farming relies on synthetic fertilisers, which produce high CO2 emissions. Agriterra's team, led by adviser Daan Vreeburg, supports coffee cooperatives in switching to bio-fertilisers and composting, making coffee farming more climate-friendly and financially stable. 💬 Daan gives an example of a successful project: "Demo Farm is a regenerative coffee plantation where we grow coffee and other crops. The farm is now CO2-negative because the trees around the farm store CO2. With the Demo Farm, we want to show that our way of producing coffee generates more income than just growing one crop." 🌿☕ #COP29 #Kenya #coffee #foodsecurity #climateaction #climatesolutions
