The aim of the pilot is to jointly develop an open-access standard for regenerative agriculture, with a strong focus on measurability of impact. Tuncay Özgüner, President FrieslandCampina Retail & Americas, says: “An increasing number of dairy farmers want to make the transition to regenerative agriculture, but they can’t do it alone. By collaborating in the supply chain on solutions such as regenerative agriculture, we can turn today’s challenges into tomorrow’s opportunities.”Wouter-Jan Schouten, Programme Director of ReGeNL, says: “Regenerative agriculture is both feasible and promising—for farmers, the climate and nature. Thanks to Lidl’s financial support, FrieslandCampina’s expertise, and the involvement of knowledge institutions connected to ReGeNL, dairy farmers can now actively start implementing regenerative practices to build a future-proof agricultural system.
