Creating Sustainable Agricultural Solutions

Sustainability in agriculture is about finding a balance between what’s best for today and what’s right for tomorrow.

Farmers are helping lead the charge, constantly evolving their work to improve their crops and their production. By stewarding all manner of resources, they are making sure the greatest industry in the world remains healthy.

  • Sustainability starts with the land. If we don’t take care of it, success will only be temporary. That means better products and better management practices.
  • Sustainability is also about making sure operations have long-term profitability. Every plan needs to be efficient, from inputs to equipment to programs.
  • Combining stewardship of the land and operational health leads to sustainable success. That’s a legacy that can be passed down, generation after generation.

At BASF, we’re doing our part to care for the environment and ensure our natural resources will endure for future generations

The Importance of Pollinators

Pollinators are vitally important to agriculture, as well as our food system and ecosystems. They help thousands of flowering plants reproduce, from flowers to fruits and even some crops. Pollinator habitat can also provide benefits on the farm, such as preventing soil erosion and improving biodiversity.

Safeguarding Food and Farms

Our agriculture customers have an enormous responsibility: producing a safe, affordable and abundant food supply.

Partnerships in Sustainability

Collaboration is essential to drive sustainable agriculture which is why BASF partners with diverse industry partners and organizations.

Honeybees & Agriculture

The honeybee plays a vital role in the pollination of flowering plants, including crops. After all, one-third of the food we eat depends upon pollination.

Measuring Sustainability

BASF has developed effective tools for measuring sustainability in agriculture, allowing companies to evaluate and improve their products and processes in terms of eco-effciency.

Product responsibility

Product responsibility is one of our key priorities. BASF supports farmers with stewardship programs to grow their crops sustainable.
