Overview of 10 agribusiness value chains and the role
of Rabobank in 2017
Rabobank's Banking for Food vision shows we want to play a
prominent role in the public debate on the broad issue of food.
Our networks allow us to connect producers with consumers.
Our knowledge allows us to actively participate in roundtables
on sustainability within select agribusiness value chains
worldwide. And our ability to offer access to financing allows us
to help our customers integrate solutions into their operations.
In cooperating with innovative customers and social partners
on ambitious sustainability projects, our hope is they will work
to inspire others to increase sustainability in their own value
chains. We aspire to combine added value for the client with an
acceleration of sustainability measures in global agribusiness
and food. In the following table we list a selection of the most
relevant memberships of roundtables/initiatives, as well as a
selection of highlights in these value chains.
