Our CEO has been officially named a 2024 Top Agri-Food Pioneer by the prestigious World Food Prize Foundation! Simon is one of 38 exceptional individuals joining the inaugural TAP List, honouring those leading the charge in transforming global food and agriculture systems. This nomination is an incredible personal achievement, and testament to the important work Agreena is doing as a company, highlighting our dedication to advancing sustainable farming practices and enhancing global food security. Congratulations, Simon! https://agreena.cc/3MxgX2q #FoodPrize24 #IveBeenTAPped #RegenerativeAgriculture

Agreena is coming to Climate Week NYC! As a global leader in regenerative agriculture finance and technology, we’ll be furthering the conversation on #RegenAg as a holistic climate-nature solution at the largest annual climate event of its kind. Want to discuss carbon removals, Scope 3 reductions, and finance and technology solutions to scale regenerative agriculture practices globally?

It’s a busy time of year for the climate sector, and our team are representing Agreena across the world. 🌍 First up is the Regenerative Agriculture Summit Series, in the Netherlands. Simon Haldrup, Agreena CEO, will be leading a workshop at the Summit on 3 September. ‘Farmers at the forefront: A roadmap to decarbonising agricultural supply chains’ will reveal unique insights from a regenerative farmer and explore both farmer and corporate perspectives on decarbonisation, helping you create a tailored roadmap for implementing regenerative agriculture. Interested in learning more about how Agreena’s solutions could help your organisation reach their environmental goals? Reach out to Kanika Chandaria, Matt Bransby, or Mauro Accurso to schedule a chat at the Summit. #RegenerativeAgriculture #RAS #RAS2024

How does regenerative agriculture help farms? Our upcoming Feldtag Day will answer just that, hosted on a regenerative farm in Germany. In partnership with Saaten-Union GmbH and Novag, we’re giving regen-curious farmers the opportunity to connect with experienced regenerative farmers, to learn about: 💶 Carbon markets and carbon farming 🌱 The advantage of catch crops 🚜  Why no-till is the future of agriculture Interested? Here are the details you need… 📍Groß Jasedow, Klein Bünzow 📆 25 Sept ⏰ 10.00-15.00 Find out more ⬇️ https://agreena.cc/3X1WRT0 #RegenerativeAgriculture #RegenAg #FeldtagDay

In recent years, high-integrity carbon credits have seen a surge in demand. Investing in nature-based solutions, like carbon farming, can accelerate companies' climate goals, going beyond value chain mitigation. Our partnership with Redshaw Advisors Ltd gives its corporate clients in the UK and Europe the opportunity to support farmers transitioning to regenerative agriculture, meet sustainability commitments and demonstrate corporate climate action, all through high-integrity Agreena soil carbon credits.

It’s great to be featured alongside other Danish companies – Carlsberg Group, Arla Foods and DLG Group – for our leadership in regenerative agriculture. Developing and scaling the building blocks for a more sustainable agriculture and food sector is a global priority, and we’re proud to be pioneering solutions that will support farmers as they transition to regenerative farming.

Agreena will be out in full force at the World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit in London on 30 Sept-1 Oct. 🌍 Tom Blower, CPO, and Luke Quinn, Head of Solution Sales, will be leading a breakout session exploring the latest measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) tech for soil carbon sequestration and emissions reductions in agriculture. Over on the main stage, our CEO, Simon Haldrup, will give a talk on farmer-centric technology, discussing how best to incentivise, measure and support regenerative farming practices. Plus, you’ll be able to catch our team on the ground on both days of the summit, to discover more about our leading soil carbon programme and the positive climate and nature impacts it’s delivering. As a key European networking event for the agri-food industry, the summit will see us join more than 1,000 senior decision-makers, exploring the breakthrough innovations and collaborations needed to create a more sustainable and resilient food system. Ahead of the summit, take a look at World Agri-Tech’s interview with our CEO Simon. 👇 https://agreena.cc/4dIVSOf #WorldAgriTech #SoilCarbon #RegenerativeAgriculture

‘Banks need to reverse course and double down on their net zero commitments — not only to meet their own climate goals, but also to profit from the new business opportunities tied to the climate transition.’ - World Resources Institute 📈 Financial institutions have a vital role to play in financing the shift toward sustainable business models and practices, including regenerative agriculture, and many are increasingly aligning their financial flows with reaching net zero by 2050. But new WRI research shows that while the number of banks with net zero commitments has grown, many are unlikely to achieve them. While pressure on banks to allocate capital in ways that benefit people, nature and the climate continues to grow, the WRI’s assessment of 25 banks show there’s still plenty of room for improvement. 💡The good news is that the WRI identified a real willingness to keep improving among banks and their sustainability teams, with a ‘race to the top’ likely to emerge as some banks take the lead in this area. Agreena is proud to be working with banks to deliver vital financial support for regenerative farmers. We launched our first banking partnership in Ukraine earlier this year and are developing further finance partnerships which will help scale the delivery of a more sustainable global food system.

What is remote sensing? 🌍 ➡️ Capturing measurements in a location without being physically present ⬅️ While remote sensing can be carried out using drones and cameras, at Agreena, we mainly use satellites within our dMRV approach. To detect and measure the fields in our programme, we use two different types of satellite: 🛰️ Optical This operates like a camera - light from the Sun hits the surface of the Earth, reflects and is captured by the satellite, capturing information about what’s happening on the ground. Normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) uses red and infrared channels to detect healthy vegetation – healthy plants reflect more infrared, rather than absorbing it. This means that when crops grow NDVI goes up and, after harvest when there is an absence of vegetation, NDVI drops. 📡 Radar After sending microwaves to illuminate the ground, this satellite recaptures the reflected information. It’s sensitive to rough surfaces, making it a useful tool for measuring differences in soil. Regardless of weather conditions, the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can acquire data throughout the season, providing even more information about what’s happening on the ground. By using two types of satellite data, we’re able to capture more information about what’s happening on the surface of the Earth, to train our machine-learning models for verification. Our advanced technology enables precise real-time and continuous monitoring of agricultural land in our programme, underpinning the credibility and integrity of the CO2e outcomes delivered by our AgreenaCarbon farmers.
