One of the biggest questions in shifting supply chains to regenerative practices is the perceived yield gap vs conventional farming. A recent long-term study shows that when properly implemented, regenerative practices can match conventional yields. anthropocenemagazine.org/2022/07/one-of…

Did you miss OP2B Director Stefania Avanzini at Moët Hennessy World Living Soils Forum earlier this month? You can now watch her sessions in full! Check out the two discussions where she talked about Coalitions Building and Regenerating Soils lnkd.in/gD7VhKCS

Nestlé is investing heavily in pilot projects that are incorporating regenerative agricultural practices into their dairy value chain to sequester carbon in soils. lnkd.in/gvtfNFYP

For us, every day is #biodiversity day. Read up on some of the key learnings from just a few of these projects as we work to transition agricultural value chains to be more #regenerative wbcsd.org/Projects/OP2B/…

Together with the #FoodValueChain, Yara is working to transform farming. 🤝 This effort aims to optimize #LandUse, maximize #CropNutrition & #ReduceEmissions to meet #ClimateTargets. 🌾 More about the importance of #sustainable land use in @wef's blog 👇 bit.ly/3wGWiRt

The work of OP2B's Pillar 2 tackles product portfolio and ingredient diversification in agricultural value chains. This article from The Guardian lays out the problems our dwindling diversity is having on the food system with engaging visuals. theguardian.com/food/ng-intera…

Can we afford to slow the shift to #sustainable farming practices in spite of the additional pressures to the global food system caused by the war in Ukraine? Independent Scientific Advisor to OP2B, Alain Vidal, comments on our need to change the paradigm wbcsd.org/Projects/OP2B/…

Still digesting last week's #IPCC report? Lead author Stephanie Roe, PhD discusses the report and the role that #regenerativeagriculture needs to play in #sustainabledevelopment globally, and how redirecting #subsidies can accelerate that shift globalcitizen.org/en/content/cli…

At the @WBCSD #LDMeeting2022, we're exploring "Accelerating action: nature-positive roadmaps" — focusing on key value-chains with the greatest impact and dependencies on nature – #food, #energy, #builtenvironment & #fashion. Dive into the roadmaps here: wbcsd.org/content/search…+

"The need to halt and reverse #BiodiversityLoss by 2030 needs to become clear in everybody's mind. The faster that happens, the more action we'll see. It's not just great for the planet and people, but for business too." - @Anirban007, CSO, @MahindraRise at @UNBiodiversity OEWG.

@OP2B_OnePlanet participated with @BfNCoalition and several members in the #business days on 14-17 March at the Geneva @UNBiodiversity Meetings👏 Key messages ➡️Need for an ambitious #Post2020 framework, the role of business, and the reform of environmentally harmful subsidies

📣Together with @OP2B_OnePlanet we’re proud to present key learnings from #OP2B member initiatives. This publication draws on +60 case studies highlighting drivers of success & policy levers that can enable companies to scale the transition to a more #regenerative ag system.

📣@OP2B_OnePlanet is proud to share @yara 's work on turning urban food waste into nutrients that farmers can use to grow crops🌿. This innovative pilot project with @Veolia shows how food waste collected from cities can supply farms w/ organic-based fertilizer.
