Farmers are the backbone of global food security. We’re improving their livelihoods through initiatives that make farming better and smarter. Transforming agriculture starts with being a trusted partner to farmers. We work with and source from farmers across multiple supply chains and geographies, working closely with them to build long-term relationships based on responsible business practices and trust. Our sustainability programmes aim to enhance the livelihoods of farmers and improve living conditions in the rural communities where many of them live. Access to knowledge, skills, inputs, and tools are vital ingredients for success, alongside close collaboration with governments, civil society, and other partners. In 2022, we supported nearly 400,000 smallholder farmers through our livelihood programmes.

We’re creating a safe, healthy, and inclusive environment where people can work and thrive. Agriculture feeds and nourishes the world. We believe that it can transform the lives of our communities, consumers, and employees around the world. Our most valuable asset is our people and their passion – the driving force behind our large and diverse business. We seek to create a safe and inclusive workplace that supports diversity and equity. Providing a safe and healthy environment, where people’s rights are respected are essential foundations to our approach.

Our aspiration is to create access to health and nutrition for the millions of people we reach. The trust and support of the communities where we work and operate is essential. We provide employment opportunities, contribute to economic prosperity, and provide essential support to local communities. We do so through a range of community initiatives, such as our partnership with Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) and BoPinc, as well as Côte d’Ivoire’s National Nutrition Programme (PNN). Additionally, we provide in-kind and financial support to strengthen local infrastructure, as well as access to nutrition, healthcare, and education.
