Unlocking the Sustainable Transition for Agribusiness

This report explores the role agribusinesses could play in creating a more sustainable food system and why they are currently stuck in business-as-usual models. 

It shines a light on three major system lock-ins that hold agribusiness back: the push for ever-cheaper food, market consolidation and vested interests, and past investment decisions that limit future change.

The report unpacks how these dynamics shape the incentives and disincentives that guide agribusiness behaviour. It also outlines what governments and global partners can do to shift the rules of the game, from sending strong political signals to building a compelling business case for sustainable practices.
