Agribusiness
Agriculture and the agribusiness market sector are extremely vulnerable to climate change and extreme weather events. Growing temperatures are raising the risk of drought, affecting the water availability for crops. Furthermore, extreme precipitation can lead to soil erosion and to production failures, threatening global food security.
Maccaferri contributes with several engineering applications to the strengthening of the agribusiness, supporting communities and avoiding repercussions on the human well-being.
