AMAGGI becomes the first grain and fiber producer and trader in Brazil to have three targets approved by the SBTi
The global organization Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) has approved AMAGGI’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets. The approval positions AMAGGI as the first grain and fiber producer and trader in Brazil to have near-term, Net Zero, and FLAG targets approved by the SBTi.
AMAGGI joined the UN’s Race to Zero campaign in 2021, committing to set science-based GHG reduction targets using the SBTi methodology, which guides companies to set emission reduction goals to keep global warming within 1.5°C and achieve net zero by 2050.
Near-term and Net Zero targets
In the near-term, AMAGGI’s goal is to reduce scopes 1 e 2 emissions by 50.4%, and scope 3 by 30% until 2032, from a 2022 base year, including land use emissions.
The long-term target (Net Zero), to be reached by 2050, is to reduce scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions as a 90% with a base year of 2022. This means that by 2050, AMAGGI will have the same emissions as its base year, 2022.
FLAG
In the FLAG category (Forest, Land, and Agriculture), related to emissions from land use, AMAGGI commits to reducing scopes 1 and 3 emissions 17% by 2032, using 2022 as the base year. This reduction includes a specific goal to reduce emissions from purchased soybeans (scope 3) by 42% per ton of fresh product, and 36.4% of the total land-use emissions from absolute scopes 1 and 3 for the same period.
Regarding Net Zero, the target is to reduce scopes 1 and 3 emissions by 72% until 2050, with a base year of 2022.
ESG commitments and targets
In addition to the commitment to achieve a deforestation and conversion free supply chain by 2025 and to maintain the expansion of its own agricultural production only in already cleared areas – which is essential to combat climate change -, the other two main actions taken by AMAGGI to achieve its greenhouse gas emissions reductions targets are regenerative agriculture and its energy transition project, which includes replacing diesel with pure biodiesel in trucks, agricultural machines, and vessels.
