As companies face tighter scrutiny on Scope 3 reporting, agricultural supply chains remain one of the hardest areas to measure with confidence. The 3rd Carbon Accounting in Agricultural Supply Chains Summit will bring together senior sustainability, argriculture, and supply chain leaders to address how farm-level data can stand up to audit and support real emissions reduction decisions.

Taking place over three days, the summit focuses on the systems, methodologies, and partnerships required to build defensible carbon accounting programs across global agrifood networks. This year’s agenda speaks directly to the growing role of data infrastructure, verification workflows, and cross-platform integration in sustainability reporting.

Speakers from organizations including Danone, Mars, Elanco, Hunnicutt Farms, Continuum Ag, and New Belgium Brewing will share how they are building data pipelines that connect on-farm activity with enterprise-level reporting. These sessions move past theory, allowing attendees to see how companies are handling data variability, aligning internal systems with external standards, and preparing for increasing regulatory oversight.

A central theme is measurement credibility. Many companies now collect large volumes of agricultural data, yet they struggle to translate it into audit-ready outputs. Sessions will examine MRV approaches in practice, with a clear look at what holds up under verification and what does not. Discussions will also cover how to manage inconsistent data inputs without slowing down reporting timelines.

Technology leaders will find a strong focus on integration challenges. Farm-level data often sits outside core enterprise systems, creating disconnects between sustainability, procurement, and finance teams. Case studies will explore how companies are structuring their data architecture to bring these functions into alignment, including the role of third-party platforms and internal governance models.

Farmer engagement remains a sticking point. The summit addresses this directly, with sessions on incentive design, data-sharing agreements, and the realities of implementing measurement frameworks at scale. Speakers will share where participation models are falling short and what is beginning to gain traction across different regions and crop systems.

There is also a clear look at business impact. Carbon accounting in agriculture is closely tied to cost structures, supplier relationships, and long-term sourcing strategies. Attendees will hear how organizations are linking emissions data to procurement decisions, carbon intensity scoring, and financing approaches tied to sustainability performance.

Standards development will continue to shape this space. The program includes updates on evolving guidance from the GHG Protocol and SBTi, with practical interpretation of how these frameworks apply to agricultural supply chains today.

The summit offers a working view of what it takes to build carbon accounting systems that stand up to scrutiny and support decision-making across the business.
