A few themes we explore in this session:
- How can investing long-term in producers allow food brands to build a more resilient supply system?
- What does it take to root out culprits of high GHGe in supply systems?
- What role do third-party verifiers play in the transition to regenerative agriculture for large food brands like Danone?

Danone
Danone’s Cost Plus Model program contracts are typically five years or longer. That allows the farmers to get out of a ‘next quarter, next year’ discussion and get into a ‘next decade, next generation’ discussion. It allows them to look deeper at how their own activities can impact GHGs and move more toward a regenerative model.
