As it is a transition, it is a slow process so don't expect Nestlé to buy 100% regenerative products in 10 years and there might be a role for some chemical inputs in the transition.

Very few people would argue we shouldn’t scale up regeneration to a landscape scale, but the immediate question always is: what are the returns? Both financial and non financial. With Jasper we also talk about the difficulty in calculating returns, the importance of discount rates and investing and leveraging investment funds, among others.
