Understanding the New Direction of Science Based Targets

Businesses are facing new expectations in climate accountability. Here’s what the latest guidance means for agricultural supply chains.

Raising the bar on accountability

Science-based targets give companies a clear pathway to reduce emissions in line with climate science. Recent guidance places more emphasis on measurable reductions inside value chains rather than offsets alone.

For food and beverage companies, most emissions sit in Scope 3 — on the farms that grow their ingredients.

What this means for sourcing teams

Companies need credible, farm-level data and programs that deliver real change on the ground. Insetting projects that reward farmers for regenerative practices are becoming a core part of climate strategies.

Where AGRA fits in

AGRA designs programs aligned with the GHG Protocol and SBTi guidance, with transparent reporting that fits procurement and disclosure timelines.
