This will be achieved by reducing emissions in our own operations by reducing our energy consumption and, where possible, using renewable energy (scope 1 and 2).
In addition, ForFarmers focuses on making its raw material procurement more sustainable and reducing on-farm emissions (scope 3).
Scope 1 stands for direct emissions for which you as a company are responsible, i.e. caused by your own production or logistics. Scope 2 stands for indirect emissions from purchased energy. And Scope 3 is both 'upstream' - related to the purchase of raw materials - and 'downstream' - related to emissions on farm.
ForFarmers' emission targets are being validated by the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) so that they are fully in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. This is thus in line with our ambition to be net climate neutral by 2050. Together with our farmers, partners and other stakeholders, we are currently developing a roadmap to achieve this. But our focus now is on our 2030 targets.
