No one person or one entity has all the knowledge, capabilities, resources and capacity to have systemic impact. If we are to solve the world’s greatest challenges, including zero poverty, hunger and reversing climate change, we need different entities with their specialised skills, experience and resources to work collaboratively to solve. Our work and network brings together relevant parties to collaborate and address the systemic issues on a specific level and cumulatively bring about positive change.

Value chains are complex and unique to a commodity or geography. Typically, the more actors along the chain, the more inefficiency becomes embedded. The first place to target to improve the value is to consolidate players along the supply chain, and negotiate more standardised contracts for each stage, improving transparency and traceability too. Our experience, and that of our trusted expert partners, helps us understand the which levers to adjust as which point to maximise value across the chain.

The impacts of hunger, malnutrition (both over- and under-) and hidden hunger have far-reaching and life-long impacts that can have decades long implications. Any approach to nutrition becomes normalised in a family unit, community and population, replicating across generations. In order to ensure everyone, irrespective of socio-economic circumstances, has equitable and reliable access to high quality nutrition to enable and support all other developmental interventions, multiple actors need to collaborate – from health, education, social development, finance and trade, business and development actors, all play a critical role – to systemically address nutrition. Our work helps to highlight the cross-sector and inter-departmental nature of the challenge of nutrition and bring together like-minded players to address it.

For producers to be the most productive and successful they can be, they need to have access to knowledge, resources, support and an enabling environment. Producers may primarily be focussed on growing things, but they also are businesses of varying sizes and complexity. In order to survive and grow, they need to know what works technically on their available land, where, how and when to sell their produce, have access to experts and funds. Our work, together with our trusted partners, help producers access all these aspects, as needed based on their specific context.

Agriculture is a system based first and foremost on natural cycles, even when we bring technology to help us do this more efficiently. Climate change has far-reaching impacts on water-, carbon- and nitrogen- cycles, temperature, pH and salinity levels and averages, disease and vector ranges and much more. All these factors impact agriculture, sometimes positively, sometime negatively. Our work will help your entity identify,  understand, quantify and plan for responses to these changes and minimise the impacts felt both in the short and long term.
