AgraQuest, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Bayer Aktiengesellschaft, which means that any climate commitments or emissions data may be inherited from its parent organisation. AgraQuest has not established its own reduction targets or climate pledges. However, it is important to note that the climate initiatives and targets from Bayer Aktiengesellschaft, which include commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and other sustainability frameworks, may influence AgraQuest's climate strategy. These initiatives are cascaded from Bayer, reflecting a commitment to reducing emissions across its corporate family. As of now, AgraQuest's specific contributions to carbon emissions reduction remain undefined, but the company is positioned within a broader corporate framework that prioritises sustainability and climate action.
