This report examines water scarcity risks for 18 major livestock companies, highlighting a significant disclosure gap where actual water use exceeds reported figures by 132x. Annual costs could reach US$9 billion by 2050. Investors are urged to advocate for systemic resilience and the repurposing of harmful agricultural subsidies.

This report examines how trade policy supports climate change adaptation in Viet Nam’s agricultural sector. It identifies critical adaptation goods and services, evaluates trade barriers such as residual tariffs and non-tariff measures, and provides policy recommendations to enhance resilience through international trade, regulatory alignment, and institutional cooperation.

This study provides the first causal estimate of ocean temperature impacts on European fishing revenue. Using a novel Marine Degree Day metric, it finds that heat exposure is three times more damaging than cold. Projections suggest annual losses could reach €560 million by 2100, disproportionately affecting lower-income equatorial regions.

This report examines the Cerrado das Águas initiative's efforts to build water resilience in Brazil’s coffee region. It details how the Regenerative Catalysts Programme strengthened financial structures and transition risk management, helping farmers adopt regenerative practices and shift from individual risk management to collective territorial stewardship.

This report examines immediate threats to global food security from a record El Niño, geopolitical conflicts, and fertiliser shortages. It highlights how climate change erodes long-term resilience through thermal limits and simultaneous crop failures, urging policymakers and investors to address systemic risks to inflation, economic growth, and financial stability.

This report summarises a June 2026 workshop regarding Ghana’s national timber and cocoa sustainability systems. It examines digital traceability, governance, and interoperability between national frameworks and voluntary standards. Key recommendations include strengthening data quality, ensuring sustainable financing, and aligning national systems with international climate standards to improve market recognition.

This research identifies a global shift in flash drought drivers from precipitation deficits to a compound effect of warming and vegetation greening. Anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing has triggered a surge in these rapid-onset events since 2017, exposing approximately 650 million people and significantly reducing terrestrial carbon productivity.

This research assesses the societal value of bottom trawling in Europe, finding annual net costs up to €16 billion. Significant climate impacts from disturbed seabed carbon outweigh private profits. The study highlights substantial trawling within Marine Protected Areas and suggests redirecting subsidies to support an industry transition.

Trase’s assessment reveals the European Union was exposed to 112,500 hectares of annual deforestation between 2021 and 2023. While palm oil exposure fell 91% since 2014, cocoa and cattle remain significant risks. Effective EUDR implementation is vital to sustain progress, particularly as re-export modelling identifies Germany as highly exposed.

This report analyses 54 nature investment vehicles to evaluate their effectiveness in mobilising institutional private capital. It identifies sector concentration in forestry and agriculture and highlights gaps in marine ecosystems. The findings emphasise the necessity of blended finance and technical assistance to scale nature-positive investments effectively.

This report examines challenges faced by smallholders under the European Union Deforestation Regulation. Based on a survey of 333 producers, it identifies land tenure, compliance costs, and technical gaps as major barriers. It recommends coordinated support from governments, the private sector, and sustainability organisations to ensure inclusive market access.

This report analyses the business case for transitioning four major Thai meat producers to plant-based proteins. It demonstrates that a 100% transition by 2050 could reduce emissions by 73%, save 8,375 square kilometres of land and increase net profits by 65% compared to traditional animal-based production models.

This research examines how voluntary sustainability standards and private sector initiatives address gender equality in agricultural value chains. Applying the Sustainable and Resilient Value Chains framework, it evaluates efforts across five commodities and recommends a 'smart mix' of solutions to transform structural inequalities and empower women producers.

This 2025 report by the NYU Stern Centre for Sustainable Business analyses CPG sales, finding sustainability-marketed products hold a 25.4% branded market share. These products grow 4.9 times faster than conventional counterparts and command a 26.6% price premium, despite inflation. Market shares are significantly higher in Germany and the UK.

This report examines Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) in Fiji as a cost-effective, sustainable tool for climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction. It details how the iTaukei people use traditional housing, food preservation, and early warning systems to enhance community resilience against cyclones, floods, and rising sea levels.

This report examines the 'Agribusiness Financial Complex', where global finance and industrial agribusiness prioritise shareholder profit over food security. It analyses the top 100 agrifood companies, highlights the environmental and social harms of financialisation, and advocates for a transition to a decentralised 'Peoples' Food Web' through agroecology.
