We’re only 13 years away from when the United Nations (UN) cites our world will reach a significant milestone… global population will exceed 9 billion in 2037. And just two years ago the UN estimated that ~735 million people were already in a state of chronic hunger, and Action Against Hunger stated 3 billion people can't afford a healthy, nutritious diet. With our continuously growing population, farmers will need even more tools and support so that they can continue to feed and provide for the human race, all while conserving and using less of our precious resources. On this World Population Day, we acknowledge the urgency and pledge to take immediate action through our sustainability commitments, to ensure all humankind have access to food. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dMnmxQXX #WPD #SyngentaSustainability #RegenerativeAgriculture

How do we embed sustainability into our business?   At Syngenta Group, we are focusing on four #SustainabilityPriorities. 1) Higher yields, lower impact 2) Regenerate soil and nature 3) Improve rural prosperity and 4) Sustainable operations.   A key initiative of our higher yields, lower impact priority is our Portfolio Sustainability Framework (PSF) - a data-driven tool to assess the sustainability profile of our product portfolio. The PSF will facilitate internal decision-making and increase transparency to external stakeholders.   Find out more about our work in this article in GreenBiz Group by Syngenta Group Chief Sustainability Officer, Petra Laux: https://lnkd.in/d9fbKFrz   #Agriculture #Sustainability #SustainabilityPriorities #Innovation #HigherYieldsLowerImpact

Scorching temperatures, pest pressures, unpredictable weather patterns and regular electricity shortages make for very challenging growing conditions. This is why selecting the right seed to plant is so critical to ensure a crop thrives and delivers strong, reliable yields that ultimately enrich the livelihoods of the grower, their family and their community. 🤝 We take great pride in supporting growers with high-quality seed varieties, because we know every seed creates an opportunity to grow and succeed in the field - and in life. 🌾 Learn about one Indian grower’s journey with our tomato seeds and the innovation at the heart of these varieties: https://lnkd.in/gyDFteKn Syngenta Vegetable Seeds Syngenta India #Innovation #SyngentaVegetableSeeds #Agriculture #Tomatoes

Climate change is presenting new challenges to farmers globally. With more unpredictable weather patterns every year, their livelihoods are frequently at risk. Our AgriClime® program has been supporting growers around the world against the impact of climate change. Extreme weather events like heavy rainfall cause disruption globally, threatening the health of crops, and AgriClime® is our way to help growers offset their weather risk – allowing them to receive cashback on Syngenta products. The program gives farmers the confidence and peace of mind to plan in advance, with our support. One example of this is how AgriClime® supported growers in the U.S., Canada and the UK since the beginning of the season: more than 2,000 farmers in North America received payouts due to the heavy rains this season, showing that AgriClime® is already making a difference. #AgriClime #Agriculture #Innovation
