22 Jul 2024 --- The International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), Cerise+SPTF and partner organizations have developed the Responsible Agricultural Investment Tool (RAI Tool) for Agribusiness. This tool offers a “practical framework” for investors and businesses in the food, agriculture and forestry sectors to understand and recognize responsible practices and prioritize improvements toward sustainability. The organizations have developed the RAI Tool to assess the responsible business practices of agribusiness and value chain actors that work directly with smallholder farmers to produce, process or trade food and agri products and impact local communities with their operations.
