Nestlé Dairy Plan in Action: Better for farmers, cows, the planet and people (virtual event recording)

Listen to the unveiling the first global progress report from the Nestlé Dairy Plan — a holistic approach to dairy transformation that brings together climate action, regenerative agriculture, animal welfare, farmer resilience and innovation across the value chain.

We heard practical solutions are already delivering results at scale: helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions, supporting productivity and farmer incomes, strengthening nature on and around farms, and building more secure supplies of high-quality dairy ingredients for the future.

From digital tools and feed innovation to manure management, biodiversity projects and agri-preneurship programmes, this session will spotlight the partnerships and on-the-ground action making a difference across markets.

We explored what’s working today, what we’re learning, and what it takes to build a more sustainable and resilient dairy system for the long term.

We heard from:

• Antonia Wanner, Chief Sustainability Officer, Nestlé
• Katja Seidenschnur, Head of Sustainability Nutrition and Health SBU, Nestlé
• Wilson Bras, Dairy Farmer from Brazil
• Robert Erhard, Group Dairy Lead, Nestlé
• Marlies Overbeeke, Director for Sustainability Strategy and Customer Partnerships, FrieslandCampina
• Damian Oettli, Head of Markets, WWF
• Andrea Porro, Secretary General, World Farmers' Organisation

The session was moderated by Tom Idle, Founder, Narrative Matters.
