SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE INITIATIVE (SAI)

ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL CRITERIA IN THE SOURCING OF AGRICULTURAL RAW MATERIALS

SAI is an initiative of stakeholders of the food industry, founded in 2002 by Nestlé, Unilever and Danone.

SAI develops principles and practices of sustainable agriculture

SAI‘s 2 major tools to document sustainable environmental and social practices in the agricultural value chain Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) Benchmarking Tool for international certification

standards & national legislation

AGRANA has been a member of SAI since 2014 and uses the FSA questionnaire to assess contract growers and the benchmarking tool in all its business segments

Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) & Benchmarking Tool

FSA is a questionnaire (applicable worldwide), that enables agricultural producers to assess the status of their operations in terms of environmentally and socially sustainable production (112 questions on farm management, soil and nutrient management as well as plant protection).

The benchmarking tool compares requirements of internat. certification standards with the requirements of the FSA-questionnaire

Corporate presentation 2017 33

SUSTAINABILITY AT AGRANAMEASURES IN THE CORE BUSINESS

• 2014: Introduction of an energy-management-system in all Austrian production plants and certification according to ISO 50001; CEE sites as of 2015|16

• Low temperature dryers installed at the Tulln & Leopoldsdorf site, both Austria, have saved more than 100,000 tonnes CO2equ. since their installation in 2011|12

• Target: energy-self-sufficient in terms of figures of the sugarplant Kaposvár|HU

The Kaposvár sugar plant in Hungary generated about 30 million cubicmetres of biogas from beet pulp in the 2016|17 financial year. This wouldhave been sufficient for the site:

to cover 80% of its primary energy requirement for the 2016|17 beetcampaign, or

60% of its total primary energy needs for beet processing and therefining of raw sugar

about 8.3 million cubic metres of the biogas produced at the facilitywere refined by the biogas upgrading plant installed in 2015 intoapproximately 4.9 million cubic metres of biomethane for feeding intothe local natural gas grid and this was equivalent to the annual heatingrequirement of about 1,950 single-family homes

ENERGY EFFICIENCYTargets 2020|21

Sugar (baseline 2013|14):

• 5% reduction of direct energy / tonne of core- & by-products

Starch (baseline 2013|14): • 50 GWh (all measures

summed up) reduction of energy consumption until 2020|21

Fruit (baseline 2014|15):• 6.8% reduction of total

energy consumption / tonne of fruit preparation (baseline 2013|14)

• Hold energy use per tonne of fruit juice concentrate & by-products constant at 2014|15 baseline

AGRANAS ECONOMIC FOOTPRINT

Study carried out by “Economica”

Calculation of the economic impact of AGRANA's business operations according to the companies understanding of sustainability, as a balance of economic, environmental and social aspects

Methodology: Input-Output Analysis

Based on data of the 2014|15 financial year

Gross value-added: the gross value added calculates the amount that is available to remunerate the production factors of labour (wages and salaries) and capital (profit, interest on borrowed capital and deductions).

Direct effects: Include that value of gross value creation or employment that is earned directly in the enterprise under consideration or generates jobs.

Indirect effects: Come into existence through the advance services interfaces of the observed enterprise in other sectors (e.g. a clinic requires advance services medications, electricity, etc., through which the final demand in the pharmaceutical industry and the electricity economy are stimulated and then in turn need advance services, etc.).

Induced effects: The jobs created and/or secured in the direct or indirect effect generate income that is then spent again by the workers (above all for consumption). This promotes ultimate demand in the respective sectors (especially retail).

Multipliers: Represent the extent to which the total effects exceed the original direct effect. A multiplier is calculated as the sum of the total value added divided by the direct economic value added generated by AGRANA.
