Food and Feed
Why Sustainable Food and Feed Matter
Population growth, globalisation, changing diets, and limited natural resources are placing mounting pressure on food and feed production. Additionally, consumers and regulators demand transparent, traceable, and sustainable supply chains.
At ISCC, we certify sustainable sourcing of raw agricultural materials to reduce deforestation, promote responsible land management, and support ethical, traceable supply chains.
- Environmentally sustainable sourcing of agricultural raw materials helps protect ecosystems, combat climate change, and protects forests and highly biodiversity lands
- Socially sustainable sourcing promotes better on-farm working conditions and fair treatment of workers throughout the supply chain.
- Economically sustainable sourcing supports market access, strengthens long-term business relationships, and helps producers meet buyer expectations through verified, transparent practices.
Market and Policy Drivers
Growing regulatory and consumer demand is reshaping the food and feed market. Our certification supports compliance with regulatory frameworks while enabling credible sustainability communication.
EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)
The regulation aims to reduce the EU’s contribution to global deforestation and forest degradation. We support the regulation with our EUDR add-on.
Recognised by Leading Standards
ISCC proves compliance with the requirements of various organisations in the food and feed market. One of which is the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative (SAI) Platform, the primary global food & drink value chain initiative for sustainable agriculture. With our certification, we have been benchmarked as FSA Gold level equivalent.
