Join us in seeing sustainability innovation in action
This year Bonsucro Week attendees have the opportunity to visit Biofabrica Siglo XXI, one of the leading agro-biotechnological companies in Mexico. Through the development of agrobiotechnical alternatives they are encouraging more ecological, sustainable and profitable agricultural production models.
Attendees will learn about Biofabrica’s current project, supported by the Bonsucro Impact Fund, which focuses on restoring soil fertility and health through regenerative agriculture. Read more about it below.
A recommended packing list for the field trip can be found here.
#BonsucroWeek
Carbon sequestration through soil technology innovation
A project supported by the Bonsucro Impact Fund
In 2022 Biofábrica Siglo XXI and its partners Coca-Cola de México and Unión Nacional de Cañeros, A.C. – CNPR were awarded a grant from the Bonsucro Impact Fund, for their innovative project focused on carbon sequestration and restoring soil fertility and health in sugarcane production.
The project looks to offer canegrowers more sustainable and proven sugarcane production models to:
- Improve the way sugarcane is produced, to turn it into a Regenerative Agriculture that allow soil to be revitalised and capture carbon.
- Develop farmers’ knowledge about their soil and production systems overall.
- Increase farmers’ productivity and profitability.
The project is tackling multiple environmental issues, such as greenhouse gas emissions from burning and the use of chemical fertilisers, soil degradation, and crop resilience to the effects of climate change such as more frequent droughts.
Bonsucro Impact Fund projects use income from our Credit Trading Platform to help our members catalyse sustainable sugarcane production.
