The Rainforest Alliance Certification Program—which includes our Sustainable Agriculture Certification, as well as our newer Regenerative Agriculture Certification—is recognized the world over as a trusted path toward a better future for farmers and companies.
Sustainable Agriculture Certification
Our most holistic certification solution supports the three pillars of sustainability: social, environmental, and economic.

This certification covers critical social, livelihood, and water requirements while deepening those for soil health, biodiversity, and climate resilience.
