Access to land

Healthy soils, increased biodiversity, and a more livable environment; sustainable farming brings many benefits. However, access to agricultural land is precisely the bottleneck for a large-scale transition. Due to high prices and limited supply, sustainable entrepreneurs often find it difficult to secure financing. A survey conducted by Biodiversity in Business, commissioned by Invest-NL, shows that it is possible. New forms of leasing, innovative land funds, and rewards for ecosystem services create room for scaling up.
