Sustainability's like 'beauty' - go on, try and define it
(sticK - 23 Nov. 2010 ) Sustainability's a term that's a bit like 'beauty' - everyone knows what it is, but pinning down exactly what it is, is often in the eye of the beholder.
However, NZ agribusiness better start getting a better grip on the actuality of sustainability, or risk being marginalised by overseas customers and consumers according to KPMG.
In a recent agribusiness green paper KPMG lays out the current and emerging environment in our markets on the vexed issue of sustainability, with a second paper to focus on the practicalities of implementing such a supply chain approach.
