With our food systems coming under pressure from challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and water availability, the world’s ability to meet growing food demand will become more difficult and could lead to an increase in global hunger. The way forward is to radically transform today’s farming systems and switch to regenerative agriculture practices that “produce more with less, while restoring more”. At Bayer, we’re only at the beginning of the journey toward a sustainable future in farming, but we see huge potential to scale up regenerative practices on farms around the world, whether big or small. With our global reach, we’re working with partners around the world to help more farmers adopt regenerative farming practices in the coming years. As part of these efforts, we’re already offering farmers modular, rotational cropping systems for selected crops across different regions of the world that are adaptable to the needs of each farm.”
