Shifting sustainability from niche to mainstream
关于我们
For more than a decade, the Sustainable Food Lab has been facilitating market-based solutions to the key issues that are necessary for a healthy and sustainable food system to feed a growing world. We use collaborative learning to build strong alliances that facilitate sustainability along the supply chain from producing to distributing to selling food. Businesses are integrating sustainability into their value chains. Companies, farmers, and civil society are identifying the most important sustainability issues in our food systems and developing credible, verifiable, approaches that make improvements and add value through the supply chain. The Sustainable Food Lab is a global network of organizations working together to realize this vision. From peer to peer leadership networks, to global learning events, to supply chain innovation projects, to measurement tools, the Sustainable Food Lab helps organizations learn and act together to accelerate progress on creating a more sustainable food system.

Thank you Diewertje Hendriks for joining the The Living Income Community of Practice! Your insights on coffee business models and contributions to the technical session - walking us through IDH's Income Measurement Guidance Tool and Income Driver Calculator - will surely support the sector to continue to narrow the living income gap.
?? Driving Living Income in Latin America Last week, I had the pleasure of presenting at The Living Income Community of Practice’s workshop in Bogota, Colombia – an amazing opportunity to explore impactful interventions supporting smallholder farmers on their journey towards a living income. While learning from many successful project-level interventions, I shared key insights from our data-driven analysis comparing 36 coffee business models. My goal: to show the proof behind interventions that work across this value chain, that can optimize business design while boosting value for farmers, to enable these projects and interventions to scale: ?? Access to finance – Essential for unlocking farmer value and resilience ?? Complex business models – Higher in cost, but delivering greater value through a broader range of services for farmers ?? Working through cooperatives – Formal farmer groups improve service quality and amplify impact ?? Segmented, tailored services – Customizing support by farmer segment boosts value while keeping company costs stable A personal bonus was connecting with an incredible group of professionals in the Colombian coffee and cocoa value chains, each bringing unique insights and expertise. Having that space to exchange knowledge was really valuable to me. For those interested in a deeper dive, check out IDH Intelligence for more insights, and read our latest paper here: https://lnkd.in/emg96uUi #LivingIncome #Sustainability #SmallholderFarming #Coffee IDH IDH Colombia Sustainable Food Lab

Practice adoption is only the first piece of the puzzle: ensuring sustainable agriculture sticks and then scales takes continuous up-skilling and an ecosystem of technical assistance for farmers. The Canadian Prairies Trusted Advisor Partnership does just that. Building off the success of the North Dakota TAP, this new initiative, with support from Bimbo Canada, General Mills, PepsiCo, Nature United, Assiniboine College, and South East Research Farm, will provide a practical, science-based curriculum for agronomists and the producers they engage – bringing the best in soil, water, and nutrient management to more acres and farms across Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

PRESS RELEASE: Fast-growing soil health network set to expand into Canada, bringing advisor-led, locally focused training and technical assistance to the Prairie provinces

???? Farmers represent 2/3 of the 740 million people facing extreme poverty today. To tackle inequality in #FoodSystems, businesses must ensure the prosperity of the communities they source from and they can do this by paying farmers a #LivingIncome.?? ? Whilst businesses have been promoting better livelihoods for farmers for decades, the World Benchmarking Alliance recently found that only 4% of 350 agribusinesses are taking action on #LivingIncome.? ? ?? To spur business action on this important agenda, we developed a Living Income Business Toolkit, in partnership with the Sustainable Food Lab, which lays out the foundational elements of a successful living income strategy.? ??
