12 Million Hectares Desertify mainly because of agriculture
Every year, 12 million hectares of land are degraded, largely driven by unsustainable agricultural practices such as over-irrigation, monocultures, and soil depletion.

Agriculture is responsible for 70% of freshwater use and contributes nearly 25% of greenhouse gas emissions, depleting our natural resources at an unsustainable rate.
As climate change accelerates, arid regions are expanding, threatening food security while 9 billion people will need to be fed by 2050.
Agri-food and industrial groups face mounting pressure to transition to sustainable models. Yet a critical gap remains: the lack of scalable, data-driven tools to make regenerative agriculture a reality.
Sand to Green was created to bridge this gap. Starting from hands-on field management, we refined agronomic practices and embedded them into RegenWise, our SaaS platform designed to scale regenerative agriculture with precision, speed, and traceability.
RegenWise manages the full lifecycle of regenerative agriculture projects:
Our strength lies in the synergy of:
We align our work with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Transforming degraded land into productive agroforestry systems for food security.
Regenerative irrigation strategies, including brine valorization, to address water scarcity.
Capturing tons of CO₂e per hectare per year while improving biodiversity and resilience.
Restoring ecosystems, protecting biodiversity, and creating long-term land health.
