VIDEO INTERVIEW: Talking stakeholder collaboration and technological advancements in animal agriculture with Stephen Cisneros from TEXAS A&M AGRILIFE RESEARCH
Nestlé has exited the Dairy Methane Action Alliance, which it co-founded to reduce methane emissions, leading to criticism and concerns about its climate strategy. Despite its departure, Nestlé claims to remain committed to its climate goals, but its move is seen as part of a broader trend of corporations withdrawing from climate coalitions amid regulatory pressures, raising doubts about the stability of such partnerships for long-term sustainability.
The UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology has initiated a groundbreaking trial of growing rice in the rewetted peatlands of the Cambridgeshire Fens as part of the AgZero+ programme, marking the first time rice is cultivated on UK farmland. This project, led by Professor Richard Pywell, aims to explore agricultural adaptation to climate change by testing nine cold-hardy rice varieties alongside other crops on rewetted peat to assess their viability under waterlogged conditions, while measuring carbon stocks, GHG emissions, water use, crop yields, and biodiversity impacts.
InSoil, a European regenerative agriculture company, has partnered with Anew Climate to exclusively market over 500,000 verified soil carbon removals from its Carbon Farming Program in Lithuania. The initiative, independently verified under Verra's VCS VM0042 standard, aims to support farmers with financial and agronomic benefits while contributing to Europe's Net Zero goals by implementing regenerative practices that sequester carbon and enhance soil health.
