a2™ Farm Sustainability Fund

a2™ Farm Sustainability Fund

The a2 Milk Company

The a2™ Farm Sustainability Fund offers grants to dairy farmers in Australia and New Zealand. These grants help support projects that make farms more sustainable while benefiting the community and environment. Since starting, the fund has invested over $1.5 million in more than 65 projects.

Farmers can get funding for activities like planting trees, wetland restoration, using different fertilisers, and improving pasture. The fund also provides tools to measure the success of these projects, such as water quality tests and carbon audits.
