What's Happening?
Alltech is actively promoting agriculture as a key component in climate solutions at the COP30 Climate Conference in Belém, Brazil. The company is emphasizing the role of agriculture in feeding a growing
population while simultaneously restoring the environment. Dr. Mark Lyons, president and CEO of Alltech, highlighted the global perspective of the company, which operates in over 140 countries, and its commitment to agricultural innovation. Alltech is showcasing its documentaries, 'World Without Cows' and 'World Without Cows Brazil: The Battle for Balance,' to illustrate how regenerative agriculture and pasture restoration can expand food production while protecting forests. This initiative builds on Alltech's previous engagements at Climate Week NYC and the FAO’s Sustainable Livestock Transformation Conference in Rome.
Why It's Important?
The advocacy by Alltech at COP30 underscores the potential of agriculture to contribute significantly to climate solutions. By focusing on sustainable livestock and soil health, Alltech is positioning agriculture as a sector that can drive economic resilience, community nourishment, and environmental restoration. This approach could lead to increased investment in agricultural technologies and practices that are both economically viable and environmentally sustainable. Stakeholders in the agricultural sector, including farmers and scientists, stand to benefit from the innovations and collaborations promoted by Alltech, potentially leading to a more resilient and resource-positive future.
