Case Study: Net Zero Dairy by 2030 with Nestlé
The Challenge
Nestlé seek to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from synthetic fertilisers and strengthen climate resilience across its agricultural supply chain - key steps toward achieving its goal include sourcing of 50% of ingredients from regenerative agriculture by 2030.

Our Approach
Fera partnered with Nestlé and Cargill on two innovative projects. One explored how seaweed-based bio-stimulants could improve soil health and crop resilience to stress such as heat and drought. The second investigated whether cocoa shells from Nestlé’s York factory could be transformed into a low-carbon fertiliser using circular economy principles.

The Result
Together, these initiatives are helping shape a more sustainable future for farming, with the potential to cut fertiliser-related emissions by up to 90%.
