15 Cargill 2020 Annual Report
Strategy
GRI 102-16
In 2020, we updated our global strategic planning and rolled
out the Cargill 2025 plan. In it, we reassure our purpose
of being the global leader in feeding the world in a safe,
responsible and sustainable manner, since this is the only
right thing to do. We believe that sustainable practices allow
us to deliver value to our clients and is a competitive differ-
ential of our businesses regarding the food system across
the entire globe.
Our position within the global food market allows us both
the opportunity as well as the responsibility to promote
transformational actions, necessary due to the huge chal-
lenges faced by all countries, from climate change to lack
of food safety. Our growth and transformation will follow
these principles:
Our global priorities
Our global strategy for operations, corporate responsibility
and sustainability establishes clear priorities based on criti-
cal issues for the business. We have chosen to concentrate
on topics that, due to our size and presence in the market,
we believe to have a more significant effect: land use, cli-
mate change, water resources, farmer income, food safety
and nutrition.
Together with our stakeholders, we have identified these
issues through an analysis of environmental, social and
economic impact produced by our various businesses and
supply chains. As we move forward regarding these points,
we seek to strengthen and disseminate our sustainable
practices, always keeping agriculture as our focal point.
We believe that many of the solutions for the challenges we
face have a point of convergence, and it is where our food
system originates - agriculture. We intend to empower farm-
ers and workers, provide a voice to local communities, pro-
mote safe and fair work conditions and ensure nutritious and
abundant food for all.
Farmers are entrepreneurs that face a context filled with
adversities. At Cargill, we believe that technology and inno-
vation are essential to overcome these challenges of work
in the field. To help agriculture produce more with less and
adopt adequate farming practices for the productivity of
each location creates the path to reach practical and scal-
able solutions, and thus, provide food safety to a growing
global population. We believe that when farmers prosper,
success is shared by all of us.
