October 2025 White Paper: Resilience in Agriculture Lending & Insurance Coalition (RALIC)
RALIC tackles the barriers farmers face in adopting soil-centered practices by creating practical solutions such as new forms of transition support and captive insurance models that offer lower premiums to farmers in transition. At stake is more than actuarial and insurance data: the initiative is also building both public and private datasets that determine who controls, benefits from, and has access to critical information about regenerative systems, risk, and performance.

May 2024 Report - Regenerative Agriculture: The top 100 Food Companies - Mapping the Landscape.
Tracking Regenerative Agriculture targets set by the Top 100 global food companies. The study found that while 68 out of the Top 100 CPG companies in the world have specifically mentioned regen ag in public-facing documents or interviews (up from 58 in the spring of 2023), there is an enormous amount of variability across metrics used, acreage targeted, and dollars deployed to support such goals.
This is the publicly published summary of a much longer-form report discussing why regenerative agriculture is crucial for planetary stability, and how regionally and locally grown are the bedrock of stable food systems.
