Regrow Ag

At Mars Snacking / Unreasonable Food Cohort event at this year's Climate Week, the following insight (thanks Kathryn Polkoff, PhD) stood out to me: Markets and investments will follow if the technology scales. Without scalability, there’s no investment case to support change. This resonates deeply with me. Given Regrow Ag's mission to bring resilience to global agriculture, on all acres on this planet, we have always built solutions that scale, as to enable the true system-wide change. Companies using unscalable methods of data collection like supplier surveys know they won't get all the data they need for reporting, and supply chain visibility (read "risk management"). We’re changing this by allowing companies to trace cradle-to-farm-gate emissions globally... without surveys or added burden on procurement teams. Maybe it's time to take a look vs deploy the next survey? At the end of the day, scalability is what makes change investible! Thanks to our partners at Mars and the other Unreasonable cohort members for a greta discussion. Greg Hocking Alison Alexander Will Butler https://lnkd.in/gZTSfp4F 

Are your emissions numbers misleading you? Our new case study on French barley suggests so. Many companies use national average to report on emissions, but they can hide significant regional differences, which means procurement and sustainability teams may be significantly overstating their emissions. 👉 See what we found after analyzing 1M+ hectares of barley: https://lnkd.in/geZQQWms

Today Regrow launched our biggest data expansion yet: unified global supply data for Scope 3 & CSRD reporting. Sustainability, procurement, and compliance can now work from the same supply-specific data. Our latest release includes: ➕ Supply-specific insights for 11 acute and chronic risks in ag supply chains ➕ Global cradle-to-farm gate emissions traceability ➕ Reduction and removals reporting with double counting safeguards ➕ CSRD and Scope 3 dashboards with portfolio rollups & supplier/buyer drill-downs What does this mean for your team? Fewer spreadsheets. Clear ROI. And claims you can defend. Learn more from our announcement blog: https://lnkd.in/gFwucQ2j

Excited to join global leaders, innovators, and changemakers at New York Climate Week 2025 #nycw —sharing a stage to help drive climate solutions and resilient food systems. Here’s where to find me: 🌱 On September 23rd, I’ll be leading the discussion at REGEN HOUSE: Building Resilient Procurement Strategies with Regenerative Agriculture—sharing how data-driven partnerships and long-term thinking are transforming procurement for climate resilience in the food sector. Joining me will be Erin Augustine, VP Global Sustainability, Oatly, Marc De Schutter, Chief Procurement Officer, Kerry and Allison Lin 林宜蓁 Lin, VP Healthy Planet, Sustainability, Mars - looking forward to this grounded and insights-filled discussion. 🌾 On September 25th, I’ll join THE NAT for a panel: Accelerating Regen: Collective Action to Support Farmers at Scale—highlighting pathways and partnerships for scaling impact across agricultural supply chains. Grateful to Deloitte and John O'Brien for convening this discussion. Beyond these sessions, you’ll find me at key #NYClimateWeek events engaging with leaders in nature-based solutions, sustainable sourcing, and global climate policy including WBCSD – World Business Council for Sustainable Development Council meeting, Sustainable Markets Initiative's Fall CEO Summit, Kinetic's Future of Living Systems Summit and many regenerative, capital, soil and supply-chain focused discussions. Joining me at NYCW from Regrow Ag will be a stellar team: Xenia Mastropetrou, Daniel Palmer, Katya Rucker, Paola Simon, Jonathan Unger and William Salas. We are looking forward to connecting with our international partners committed to action, innovation, and collaboration in food, agriculture, and nature. Let’s sync up and align on how we are driving progress together! #ClimateWeek #NYCW2025 #RegenerativeAgriculture #SustainableFoodSystems #GlobalCollaboration

Regen ag programs are at risk of investing in the wrong sourcing regions, leaving assets stranded and missing out on essential GHG reductions claims. Sound surprising? It happens more often than you'd think. Without a clear view into sourcing regions, a company can’t ensure that its regen ag programs are impacting the actual ingredients in their products. Investing in programs without a clear map can lead to stranded assets that can’t be claimed in a corporate GHG inventory. We've seen this happen with many well-intentioned programs, primarily because there wasn’t a clear map of where to focus at the outset. To fix this problem, we need to streamline data collection and analysis, remove silos and ensure that all teams are working from the same dataset. We talked through this with HowGood - see what we learned: https://lnkd.in/gPQY-VEG

What do companies miss when they ignore soil carbon removals in their GHG inventories? While Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) Land Sector Removals Guidance is still being finalized, many leaders are already preparing for a future where measuring and reporting soil carbon becomes standard practice. To quantify the potential of removals in one supply chain, we analyzed nearly 4M+ acres of U.S. spring wheat using Regrow Sustainability Insights. The results were clear. Soil removals can materially reduce reported emissions and reshape sustainability strategies when backed by transparent data and field-level traceability. Check out the key takeaways from our analysis below, and head to the Regrow Blog for the full story.

What if two counties in Kentucky could help bourbon distillers reach their climate targets? A recent report from The Nature Conservancy highlighted how the bourbon industry can reduce Scope 3 emissions by incentivizing regenerative agriculture, with cover cropping identified as a major lever. Building on this, Regrow analyzed more than 500,000 hectares of Kentucky cornfields. The findings: two counties could deliver outsized emissions reductions for some of the world’s most recognizable bourbon brands. This level of supply shed insight is essential for food and beverage companies. It’s not enough to set ambitious goals. Companies need to know where, which practices, and how much impact those practices will deliver. That’s how brands move from climate pledges to climate progress 🥃 👉 Link to full analysis in the comments.

I'm excited to see this partnership come to life. As carbon markets evolve, it’s critical that we work together to ensure high integrity for credits and strong incentives for farmers. Our collaboration with Green Carbon Inc. is a huge step in that direction. Working in methane reduction is particularly impactful, as methane is one of the more potent greenhouse gasses. I'm proud of the work our teams are doing to build credible, scalable programs for agriculture resilience, and I look forward to our continued work together.
