Sustainability is more than a buzzword; it’s a necessity nowadays. But we know it can be tough to figure out how to make it work on the farm. To help, we’re starting a series where we’ll share real-life stories about making farms more sustainable. To get things rolling, here’s a great example from our 2023 Sustainability Report - the McCarty Family Farms from Kansas, USA. Here sustainability is a way of life: the farm is using innovative tech to track each cow’s health and happiness, ensuring top-notch care and a smaller carbon footprint. 🐮💙 Curious about how they do it? 👉🏽 Read more about their journey and commitment to sustainable farming here: https://bit.ly/3YxeKLC #DeLaval #TeamBlue #SustainableFarming #AnimalWelfare #CowsComeFirst #Dairy

🌱 Today is World Soil Day! 🌎 Regenerative agriculture is one of the most powerful solutions to heal our soil, grow healthy food, and fight climate change. By restoring soil health, regenerative practices capture carbon, boost biodiversity, and make farming more resilient. Protecting soil through regenerative agriculture isn’t just good for the planet—it’s essential for a sustainable food future. ✨ Here’s how we can act: 1️⃣ Support sustainable agriculture practices that restore soil health, improve water and air quality, boost biodiversity, and combat climate change. 2️⃣ Reduce food waste—when food is wasted, so are the soil resources used to grow it. 3️⃣ Advocate for policies that invest in soil restoration and sustainable food systems. At Littlefoot Ventures, we’re committed to solutions that heal our soil while feeding communities. Whether it’s partnering with food rescue organizations (such as AmpleHarvest.org), upcycling organizations (such as Upcycled Food Association and Matriark Foods) or advocating for regenerative agriculture (through Soil Health Alliance), we believe soil health is key to a sustainable future. #WorldSoilDay #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilHealth #Sustainability #ClimateAction Eva Goulbourne

Coast 4C is making seaweed farming profitable, while revitalising coastal communities and ecosystems. This miracle material can be found in everything from toothpaste to shoe polish – it’s even being used as a sustainable alternative to plastic. But it’s in need of a boost. Coast 4C financially supports smallholder farmers and provides them with the materials they need to farm regeneratively; protecting biodiversity and improving ocean health. Coast 4C's approach shows that environmental restoration and economic growth can thrive together. Dive into the full story in our film: https://lnkd.in/em9kHju8

Did you know that the path to a more sustainable future starts with the way we cultivate our food? 🌾 At Horta da Terra, we're committed to regenerative agriculture, just like the principles outlined in the insightful article from Sacred Cow (https://lnkd.in/d7F7jeVU). Regenerative agriculture isn't just a farming method; it's a philosophy that seeks to restore and enhance ecosystems while producing nourishing food. This approach focuses on soil health, biodiversity, and carbon sequestration, contributing to a more resilient and sustainable food system. By mimicking nature's processes, regenetarians aim to heal the land, support biodiversity, and mitigate the impacts of climate change. Through these best practices, we at Horta da Terra are also focused on promoting Amazonian biodiversity,  by providing access to anyone on the planet to the nutritional, functional and medicinal powers of plants. Join us in embracing regenerative agriculture as a powerful solution for a healthier planet and a more sustainable future! 💚 #RegenerativeAgriculture #SustainableLiving #BiodiversityRevival #ClimateAction #HortaDaTerra

🌍 Buitelaar Group's Sustainability Lead, James Watson, was recently invited as a panellist for the premier of the 'World Without Cows' documentary at the European Roundtable for Beef Sustainability in Poland. Privileged to be a part of the day, James emphasised that the beef industry isn't just a linear value chain but a vital nexus that supports biodiversity, soil health, and carbon sequestration through regenerative agriculture. It’s crucial for us to highlight how we contribute to complex ecosystems. He also noted the need for the beef industry's voice to be heard, especially as we embark on long-term commitments like regenerative practices. Working together, engaging consumers and sharing our story is essential for gaining the understanding and support needed to drive our industry forwards. 💚 #Sustainability #RegenerativeAgriculture #ERBS

From Farm to Table: Sustainable Agriculture for a Hunger-Free America Sustainable agriculture offers a beacon of hope in the face of food insecurity. By embracing practices that revitalize our soil, conserve vital resources, and strengthen local food systems, we can harvest a more resilient and equitable future for future generations.

🌱 Harness the Power of Sustainability! 🌍. There are a number of programs to support ranchers toward adopting regenerative practices. Here's why and a link below for more information. As stewards of vast tracts of land, ranchers have a unique opportunity to lead the way in environmental conservation and sustainability. From wildlife habitat conservation to enhancing soil health, the impact of sustainable practices goes beyond the ranch gate. Here are several ways ranchers can make a difference: Wildlife Habitat Conservation: By maintaining and restoring habitats, ranchers can protect biodiversity and support ecosystem resilience. Soil Health Enhancement: Practices such as rotational grazing and cover cropping not only improve soil fertility but also increase the soil's carbon sequestration potential, which could be key in combating climate change. Water Resource Management: Efficient water use and protecting waterways can significantly reduce a ranch's environmental footprint and support healthy aquatic ecosystems. The benefits of engaging in these practices are immense, not just in terms of ecological impact but also for enhancing the sustainability and profitability of ranching operations. Interested in learning more about how you can contribute to sustainable food systems? Check out the opportunities and resources available here. Let's work together to create a sustainable future, one pasture at a time! 🌾🐄 #Ranching #Sustainability #Agriculture #SoilHealth #Conservation #ClimateAction https://lnkd.in/gpXvfUET

Today it’s International Coffee Day and at Nespresso we are continuously working towards a sustainable future. Visiting two of the farms we are working with first hand in Brazil this summer, I was blown away by everything they do when it comes to regenerative agriculture initiatives as part of our Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality™ Program. It was an experience of a lifetime and truly inspiring to be part of! 🌱 Regenerative agriculture Empowering farmers in cultivating healthy soils, promoting biodiversity, and protecting natural ecosystems. 🌱 Reducing CO2 emissions Regenerative agriculture not only help reducing agricultural emissions, it also equips the land to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere, helping mitigate climate change. 🌱 Supporting local farmers By reducing input costs and increasing yields, regenerative practices improve farmers' livelihoods. We’re proud to work alongside Rainforest Alliance, supporting over 150,000 farmers through this transition. Let’s take responsibility together to secure the future of high-quality coffee! #InternationalCoffeeDay #Regenerativeagriculture #UnforgettableTaste
