Influencing better management of water in agriculture

Quality is the key element in all of Nestlé’s businesses. A reputation for quality sustains the trust and confidence of Nestlé’s consumers. To deliver this confidence, Nestlé depends on the long-term supply of safe and high-quality agricultural raw materials. Increasing water scarcity in many regions of the world threatens this supply and may also create social and economic risks for farmers and communities. To address this risk proactively, Nestlé is turning the attention of its agronomists to the water problem.
