The 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) was held in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan, from Nov. 11 to 22. As a top innovator in sustainable agriculture, Syngenta Group participated in the event, providing unique insights and solutions to tackle global challenges.

During COP29, Syngenta Group's Chief Sustainability Officer attended a series of seminars organized by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. He emphasized the importance of prioritizing farmers' needs when promoting sustainable agriculture. Farmers care more about increasing yields, reducing workload, and boosting profits rather than solely reducing carbon emissions. Sustainable products, known for their efficiency and low usage, can help farmers reduce labor costs, improve productivity, and cater to the growing consumer demand for green foods, ultimately increasing farmers' income. Syngenta Group integrates sustainable development principles into its corporate strategy, empowering farmers with innovative products and advanced services. This not only better meets farmers' practical needs but also drives the company's growth, leading to mutual benefits.
