🌱Monte Silveira Farm meets EARA | European Alliance for Regenerative Agriculture in Brussels🌱
On 29 September, João Valente represented Monte Silveira Farm at “Financing the Farm Transition: From Pilots to Practice”, organised by the EARA | European Alliance for Regenerative Agriculture European Alliance for Regenerative Agriculture in Brussels.
The event brought together farmers, financial institutions, insurers, policymakers and organisations working across Europe to address one of the major challenges facing regenerative agriculture today:
How do we move from successful pilots to financing regenerative farming at scale?
João joined the panel “Insurance Products for Farm Transition”, bringing the farmer perspective into the discussion alongside representatives from Crédit Agricole and CrowdFarming.
For Monte Silveira Farm, participating in these discussions is particularly important. Farmers are already delivering benefits that extend far beyond food production - healthier soils, biodiversity, carbon sequestration, water resilience and more resilient landscapes.
The challenge now is to build financial systems capable of recognising, rewarding and accelerating those outcomes.
A great opportunity to exchange perspectives, build new connections and ensure that farmers remain at the centre of the conversation on how Europe finances its agricultural transition. 🌍🌾
