Dear John,
Conventional, pesticide-based agriculture is increasingly under fire. Litigation is raging around the health harms of “Roundup;” consumers are demanding cleaner, safer foods; and the harms of agricultural pesticides are increasing across the environment. Innovation in the food system is necessary not only to differentiate leading food companies, but to create and maintain value. Some proactive food manufacturers are acknowledging and beginning to address these growing risks.
As You Sow's Environmental Health Program invites you to join the webinar and release of our new report: Pesticides in the Pantry: Transparency & Risk in Food Supply Chains on Thursday, November 7, 9:00 a.m. P.T.
Pesticides in the Pantry ranks food manufacturers on their success in adopting and disclosing agriculture programs that reduce pesticide use across their supply chains. We identify key performance indicators, review benchmarks for assessing progress, and describe innovative initiatives in creating truly sustainable agriculture programs.
Join us for the 2019 webinar and report discussing best practices and benchmarks for investors and analysts. Also learn which companies are in the forefront and those that lag behind their peers.
