Help shape the future of sustainable indoor farming.

Indoor farming is becoming an increasingly important part of modern agriculture, from greenhouses and covered cropping to soil-based and soil-less production systems.

The Certified Sustainable Standards Review Board is considering how sustainable indoor farming should be certified. Producers, processors, service providers, researchers and other industry stakeholders are invited to contribute their experience and perspectives.



The consultation period closes on 30 September 2026, and an online consultation session will be held on Thursday, 30 July 2026.

Nature is one of agriculture’s most powerful tools!

This research shows how boosting biodiversity can reduce pesticide reliance — delivering real environmental gains.

For Certified Sustainable producers, these are the kinds of practices that become verified, measurable improvements across the supply chain.

Researchers are discovering that nature might provide the answers on how to protect crops from various pests in Australia, Chine, the Pacific and Africa.

Certified Sustainable livestock production gives producers a real market advantage — it validates performance with hard data, strengthens buyer confidence, and positions Australian beef for future trade and premium markets.

As Marg Will puts it, “we need to validate what we’re doing,” and certification is the mechanism that turns on‑farm practice into verifiable proof. By embedding ESG principles from emissions to governance, Certified Sustainable shows measurable progress, not just intent. It demonstrates that producers understand their baseline, are improving year on year, and can back every claim with transparent evidence.

That level of verification builds trust with processors, retailers, and export partners who increasingly demand ESG‑aligned supply chains. Certified Sustainable transforms data into credibility, resilience, and long‑term value — giving Australian beef producers a stronger position in competitive, sustainability‑driven markets.

Protecting the integrity of sustainability claims matters.

Without independent verification, sustainability claims risk losing credibility — and trust across supply chains.

That’s why Certified Sustainable exists: to protect integrity, strengthen confidence, and ensure claims stand up to scrutiny.
