This report provides investors with insights on how impact performance analytics can unlock deeper understanding of investors’ actions and the real-world impact of their capital. This brief explores the positive effects of non-financial support on improving the impact of investee companies on the clients they serve in the sustainable agriculture sector. Findings highlight the role that non-financial support from investors can play in strengthening the impact performance of investments, improving sustainable agricultural practices and increasing the number of farmers served by their investments each year.

The data analyzed in this report was contributed by investors to the GIIN’s agriculture impact performance benchmark. Data pertains to direct impact investments — defined as investments made directly into companies or projects with the intent to create a positive,  measurable social or environmental impact alongside a financial return — in agriculture.
