Support and educate farmers to implement climate-resilient farming practices and thus protecting farmer
communities for the physical impacts of climate change, ensuring stable income and reduce price volatility.

Supply chain interruptions caused by climate-related events, such as crop failures, can lead to increased
procurement costs or production delays.

Potential financial risks related to water scarcity (which results in a quality risk for vegetables and fruits
cleaning), including increased costs for water procurement and treatment, which can impact operational
expenses and profitability.

E1
Implementing carbon reduction measures can lead to financial benefits through reduced operational
expenses (OPEX). This includes lowering ongoing costs associated with energy consumption, utility bills,
and initiatives such as reducing travel expenses and employee mobility.
Use of alternative water consumption sources (water circularity, reusing of water, grey water,...)
contributes to increased access to safe and affordable drinking water and sanitation for local communities
