Natcap Launches Free Tool to Identify Nature Risk Hotspots in Agricultural Supply Chains

Natcap has announced the launch of its Agricultural Commodity Tracing Tool, a new solution that enables companies to identify where the agricultural commodities in their supply chains are produced using granular, sub-national data.

In minutes, the tool provides credible, data-driven estimates of commodity origin without requiring additional data from suppliers. These insights help businesses pinpoint geographic hotspots for nature-related risks and prioritise supplier engagement and mitigation efforts. The tool also provides a neutral, evidence-based lens to validate supplier claims and identify potential blind spots.

“Agricultural supply chains are often opaque, and national-level data can mask significant regional variation in nature-related risks,” said Sebastian Leape, CEO at Natcap. “Understanding where commodities are actually produced is a critical first step for companies seeking to manage nature-related risks in their supply chains. By providing granular insight into likely production regions, the Agricultural Commodity Tracing Tool helps companies focus engagement and mitigation efforts where nature risks are most concentrated.”

Designed for sustainability and procurement professionals, the Agricultural Commodity Tracing Tool integrates with Natcap’s broader Nature Intelligence Suite for Supply Chains. Once companies understand where commodities are produced, they can conduct deeper assessments of nature-related dependencies, impacts, risks, and opportunities across their supply chains.
