Dylan Vaca | The DeLong Co., Inc                      CSC - Brand and Marketing Manager Who is Dylan?     Who is DeLong Co.?To update our listeners what is a brief explanation of the concept of climate-smart agricultureHow is climate change impacting global agricultural systems?Does policy impact them more than the climate change?What are the key challenges farmers face due to climate change?Climate-Smart Agriculture Practices What are some sustainable farming practices that can mitigate the impact of climate change?What role do cover crops play in enhancing soil health and climate resilience?What is the science between practices?  Is every case different?Policy and Financing for Climate-Smart Agriculture What policies or regulatory frameworks are in place to support climate-smart agriculture?How can governments incentivize farmers to adopt climate-smart practices?Are there any financial mechanisms available for farmers to access funds for climate-smart investments?Success Stories and Future Outlook Can you share any examples of successful climate-smart agriculture initiatives?How can consumers contribute to promoting climate-smart agriculture?What are the key challenges and opportunities for scaling up climate-smart agriculture practices?In your opinion, what does the future of climate-smart agriculture look like?How do you balance the adoption of climate-smart practices with the demands of market access and consumer preferences?How successful has the Grow Climate Smart program been?  Carbon, acres, etc…What is the goal?   How much does it pay?What else did we miss? Conclusion:Recap of key points and takeaways from the interview.ChallengeThanking the guest for their valuable insights & share contact information If you could go back to tell yourself something at age 18, what would you say? ·         The DeLong Company launched the new brand, Grown Climate Smart, which is dedicated to incentivizing and supporting the development of sustainable practices on farms. This brand is developed and managed by The DeLong Company Which was awarded a $40 million Climate-Smart Commodities USDA grant to develop and market a new brand that aims to track greenhouse gas reductions and  resulting from growers implementing climate-smart practices.o   The DeLong Company is a 6th generation family owned business with 38 grain, seed, agronomy and export logistics locations around the country. The DeLong Company is the largest U.S. exporter of containerized agricultural products.·         We have over 200,000 sustainably farmed acres producing grain enrolled in the program for 2023.o   - corn, soybeans, wheat, rye, sorghum, alfalfa·         The four practices we are encouraging farmers to do areo   Cover Cropso   Reduced or No Tillo   Nutrient Management Planso   Windbreak Establishments or Renovations Other Talking points about sustainable farming·         A key issue that the program seeks to address is the lack of a standardized definition of a Climate Smart Commodity. Grown Climate Smart hopes to not only establish a definition but provide clear examples and practices that meet climate-smart requirements.o   A CSC will be defined as a commodity produced on an acre of ground that employs a minimum of one high benefit NRCS practice, follows the general guidelines of the program, and is marketed and labeled as a CSC.o   The adoption of the practice should have a measurable impact on carbon reduction, and the commodity should be traceable in the supply chain. The implementation of this program will better define what a CSC is by identifying and communicating specific practices to be enrolled in a climate smart program, educating producers on CSC implementation practices, communicating and educating producers on how these CSC practices reduce GHG emissions and improve carbon sequestration, and marketing and labeling products as CSCs. Establishing a clear definition will enable CSCs to be effectively marketed to consumers.·         Importance of Soil Health: The significance of soil health in sustainable and regenerative farming practices. Healthy soil supports plant growth, sequesters carbon, improves water retention, and promotes biodiversity.·         Sustainable farming integrates three things: environmental health, economic profitability, and social and economic equity.·         Sustainable practices are becoming more the norm, and less niche but we still have considerable work to do.o   I have some statistics I can provide from the USDA regarding the 4 practice trends over time.
