Suntory Beverage & Food (Thailand)’s Post

It's been two years since Avon and some other Action for Sustainable Derivatives kick started it support for Kaleka Mosaik project. Sharing just a few measurable impacts from year 2 of this initiative: - An additional 204 farmers in two villages have been involved in the certification process - more than 100 hectares of degraded land in three villages have been replanted - local communities protected 2,732 hectares of forested landscapes through Social Forestry and Village Regulation schemes There are lots of other positive impacts that can't be easily measured but are key as well, e.g. farmers are developing alternative sources of income, thanks to being provided with high economic value crops, such as patchouli and citronella, as well as with support for how to enhance investor interest for these. As always, there's been challenges as well, and lots of useful learnings, you can read more about it in the ASD post below.

It’s true: funding efforts to prevent TR4 and save bananas is a costly undertaking. That’s why we need to ask for donations from industry partners.   But the cost of NOT saving bananas is far greater. The impact on food security and supply chain resilience could be enormous. We estimate that, by 2060, TR4 could cost the banana industry as much as $229 billion.   But we can avoid that cost if we act now: by investing in TR4 prevention efforts and breeding pipelines for TR4-resistant bananas. If we can raise our target amount today, it should enable us to have enough impact to put bananas on a better path.   That’s why donating to the Banana Action Group now is a smart investment in the future of banana businesses.   Talk to us about maximizing the impact of your donation: [email protected]   #BananaActionGroup #bananas #bananaindustry #bananaproduction
