Pressure is intensifying across the food system. Tariffs, climate, regulation, and changing demand are all amplifying the volatility.
For leaders in sustainability, R&D, and sourcing, the challenge is clear:
Secure supply, protect margins, improve efficiency, and manage consumer expectations all at once.
That’s why this year, 200+ senior leaders across CPGs, retailers, and producers are convening at Transform Food & Agriculture USA to:
• Align sourcing and reformulation with sustainability and commercial priorities
• Build data systems that deliver value for both the business and the farm
• Strengthen resilience across increasingly fragile supply chains
• Drive operational efficiency across sourcing, production, and procurement
With a select group of senior leaders and private interactive sessions, this is an event built for honest discussion and practical decision-making.
Join us in Minneapolis if you're ready to turn pressure into operational advantage and stronger margins.
Events like Reuters Transform Food and Agriculture are essential for tackling the challenges no company can solve alone. In 2026, food and beverage leaders must embrace collaboration and transparency as pre-competitive conditions for success. The real opportunity is recognizing that sustainability and profitability are interdependent — organizations with traceable, responsible supply chains that support farmer wellbeing and ecosystem resilience are building trust that markets increasingly demand.
As climate pressures intensify, fragmented data, limited visibility into soil health and on‑farm productivity, and rising reporting burdens on farmers are undermining supply‑chain resilience. Unlock smarter farm‑level data capture and stronger information flows to reduce friction for growers, while turning soil insights into economic value and higher returns.
The collective impact of rising input costs, supply volatility, and thin margins across the value chain creates an opportunity to redesign how value and risk are shared. Leverage practical models, from diversifying sourcing to co-investment partnerships, alongside AI and data-driven insights to improve visibility and decision-making.
A rapidly shifting global and national regulatory landscape, shaped by evolving rules on waste, carbon, and land use - including EPR, LSRG, and the upcoming 2026 Farm Bill - is requiring more agile, cross-functional responses to compliance. To stay ahead, businesses must move away from siloed approaches, align data, and embed compliance into everyday sourcing and product decisions.
