From Commitment to Action: Empowering Agricultural Supply Chains with Data and Finance

25 Jun 2025
Food Systems Hub
Sector: Net-Zero Business

Corporates across food, agriculture, and finance are making ambitious climate and sustainability commitments. But turning these goals into measurable progress requires action within their supply chains - particularly from farmers. This session explores how new financing tools and field-level environmental data can help corporates move from commitment to delivery.

We’ll look at how companies are enabling change on the ground by equipping farmers with the capital and insights they need to adopt more sustainable practices—without adding complexity or risk.

Oxbury Bank will explain how supply chain finance is being used to support regenerative agriculture, helping corporates and processors provide farmers with the working capital needed to invest in sustainability, while ensuring continuity and confidence throughout the value chain.

Downforce Technologies will share how its field-level soil data platform is being used by corporates to roll out actionable insights across their farmer networks. By offering high-resolution, science-based metrics - particularly around soil carbon - Downforce enables corporates to align suppliers behind sustainability initiatives and track progress in a transparent, scalable way.

Who It’s For:

Corporate sustainability leads, supply chain managers, agri-finance professionals, and others focused on turning high-level ESG goals into real outcomes across agricultural value chains.
