The first of our bi-monthly Farmer Advisory Board meetings brought together farmers, manufacturers, processors and brands to address critical industry issues and provide a space to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the food industry.
With only six years to hit the 1.5-degree global warming threshold, the food industry plays a critical role in tackling global warming.
Shifting mindsets and improving understanding along the supply chain will help ensure resilience both now and in the future, and this session was a place to start.
The eye-opening conversations centred around topics such as sustainability standards, procurement strategies and contract lengths, policy advocacy, the realities of farming, and the urgent need for collective and practical action to address sustainable food industry change.
The conversation does not end there. If you’d like to join the next conversation, join Future Food Movement. To join FFM, please explore here or set up a call with our membership team on ffm@veris-strategies
