In - Innovations: highlighting changes that can increase performance and opportunities - the panel discussed emerging technologies that support the entire soy supply chain. Streamlining sustainable soy production, traceability and connectivity with regulation and reporting.
We caught up with panellist Allison Kopf about her key takeaways from the session, and what TRACT is doing to drive sustainability in the soy supply chain.

I'm really excited about what's coming as it relates to technology, helping to link all of the different connections between regulation and public reporting and targets around sustainability and then how we can turn that into advantageous for us as companies, link it to financing initiatives, link it to all of those goals that we have with our buyers. And then from a technology perspective, how do we automate a lot of the data collection that's related to that was at the farm and through the supply chain? Yeah, Track to say joint venture that was started by the industry, designed specifically for the industry. And we're focused on enabling traceability at scale across the supply chain and driving impact versus having companies compete on the methodology behind that. So we bring the industry together, we focus on alignment around sustainability topics like deforestation and carbon, and then we build the technology to actually enable the tracking of that. Linked to the traceability through this logic.
