Mission statement:
Working together for sustainable agriculture: We will reach out to our stakeholders, developing dialogue and forming partnerships for the common goal of achieving a more sustainable agriculture. We will work across the various technology solutions offered by the plant science industry, promoting their complementary nature in sustainable agriculture and cooperate closely with other trade associations representing the plant science industry. For us, sustainable agriculture refers to a system of agriculture that, over the long term, will: - satisfy human food and fibre needs - enhance environmental quality and the natural resource base upon which the agricultural economy depends - make the most efficient use of available technologies, nonrenewable resources and on-farm resources and integrate, where appropriate, natural biological cycles and controls - sustain the economic viability of farm operations - enhance the quality of life for farmers and society as a whole As a global network, CropLife International acts as an ambassador for the plant science industry, encouraging understanding and dialogue whilst promoting agricultural technology in the context of sustainable development. - We actively represent the plant science industry in relevant international fora and towards our major stakeholders. - We lead and coordinate the international network of regional and national associations, who act as the authorised representatives of the plant science industry. - In our representation, we endeavour to listen and learn from our stakeholders and seek to understand their views and perspectives. At the same time we will seek to gain their understanding of the plant science industry’s role, activities, views, values and beliefs.
