Which major food and beverage companies have signed the joint declaration on regenerative agriculture, and what is the stated purpose of the initiative?

Forty major food and agriculture groups—including Carlsberg (CARLb.CO), Diageo (DGE.L), Nestlé (NESN.S), Mondelez (MDLZ.O), ADM, McCormick (MKC.N), and Unilever (ULVR.L)—have signed a joint declaration to advance and scale regenerative agriculture. The initiative, led by SAI Platform, aims to address climate change, biodiversity loss, and soil degradation while securing agricultural supply chains.

Why do the signatories emphasize collaboration over isolated efforts in advancing regenerative agriculture?

The signatories state that 'no single organisation or solution can drive the systemic change required,' underscoring the need for alignment and collaboration across the supply chain rather than fragmented, standalone initiatives—echoed by Carlsberg’s Simon Boas Hoffmeyer, who said, 'We need alignment and collaboration—not isolated efforts.'
