Klim, a leading AgroTech platform, has joined the Association for Sustainable Agriculture & Food in Poland (ASAF). The membership is aimed at supporting farms in adopting regenerative agriculture practices and building stable, crisis-resilient supply chains across the agri-food sector.
Founded in 2020, Klim is a technology company delivering innovative digital solutions that connect farmers, food processors, and financial markets. Through this platform, farmers gain access to expert knowledge and tools for monitoring the implementation of regenerative practices — such as no-till cultivation and cover cropping. Klim’s solutions are currently used by more than 4,000 farmers across Europe. The company also provides global brands with tools to reduce Scope 3 emissions in their supply chains by directly funding the transition to regenerative practices at the farm level.
A sustainable supply chain requires commitment at every stage — from field to fork. Our platform demonstrates in practice that regenerative agriculture is a concrete business model — one that already provides farmers with an additional income stream today, and over the longer term, increases the resilience and profitability of their operations. Membership in ASAF allows us to work alongside leaders of the Polish agri-food market in developing solutions that strengthen the resilience of Poland’s food production sector.

Integrating digital tools that support carbon farming aligns with the latest food security guidelines. As outlined in recommendations developed by UNEP/GRID-Warsaw, achieving SDG 2 (“Zero Hunger”) begins with nurturing soil health — and requires moving away from short-sighted production intensification toward building long-term resilience in food systems.
Conventional agriculture — driven by short-term resource exploitation — creates costs that sooner or later resurface in the form of environmental degradation and declining soil fertility. This directly undermines food security and crop quality. Technologies like the Klim platform make it easier for farms to transition to a regenerative model by offering precise diagnostics and supporting multi-year production management. This is exactly the direction set out in the Agenda 2030 recommendations.

ASAF has long maintained that sustainable agriculture must balance environmental responsibility with sound economics. Regenerative practices improve soil structure and water retention, while regenerative farming programs allow these efforts to be converted into tangible financial benefits through collaboration between food producers within insetting mechanisms.
Food security is also about the economic stability of the farm. Adopting innovation and sustainable practices simply must make financial sense for the farmer. We are delighted to welcome Klim, because their business model directly addresses this challenge. By rebuilding the yield potential of their soil, farmers simultaneously gain access to innovative financing mechanisms from markets and food companies. This is a key driver of modernization for Polish agriculture.

The Association for Sustainable Agriculture & Food in Poland (ASAF) is a non-commercial initiative representing companies and individuals from across the agri-food sector. The Association promotes, educates, and fosters collaboration in the field of sustainable agriculture and food in Poland. It also serves as an institutional partner of the SDGs Partnership “Together for the Environment,” an initiative of UNEP/GRID-Warsaw. In 2024, the Association celebrated its 10th anniversary.
