Supporters of sustainable agriculture
Sustainable agriculture is an approach to agriculture that increases food production from existing farmland without increasing impact on the environment. In the face of a growing human population and finite supply of land, water and energy, Syngenta Group Ventures believes we must all work together to provide the food we need without irreparable damage to the planet we live on.
