Unlocking finance for the adoption and mainstreaming of nature-based solutions in the food system. RA helps provide companies and investors in the food system with opportunities to finance the transition to regenerative commodities. We identify financing gaps and solutions across value chains, catalysing financing partnerships and platforms.
Population growth is driving global demand for agricultural commodities, while conventional agriculture practices are having devastating effects on the environment that sustains them. A transition to regenerative agriculture provides the opportunity to adopt nature-based solutions to increase resilience and resource security across value chains.
Regenerative farming methods that protect natural capital is shown to increase crop yields, farmer incomes, and mitigate the risk of crop failure. Globally, this transition could be worth as much as US$1.2 trillion according to the Sustainable Markets Initiative. However, it will also cost money that no individual market player can provide (up to US$400 billion per year according to the World Bank). This increases the stakes for new forms of financing partnerships.
Through our projects, products and services, we aid companies in understanding and committing to environmental improvement, assessing their environmental footprint, developing strategies for environmental solutions, and communicating their progress on sustainability transparently.
