Global food and agricultural security demands that we produce more with less land, water, and other inputs. The challenge for world agriculture is to cater to the needs of a world population growing from seven billion to more than nine billion by 2050.
More globally connected and aspirational economies and increasing financial and lifestyle expectations are placing added pressure on the world's limited resources. A changing demography, including an ageing population, driving increased protein demand, with a shrinking resource base in terms of arable land and fresh water, is increasingly challenging the food and agribusiness sectors.

Food and Agribusiness services
Agriculture
Human life as we know it today is sustained and enhanced by the practice of agriculture - the cultivation and breeding of animals, plants and fungi for food, fibre, biofuel, medicinal plants and other products.
Food Processing
Excellence in manufacturing and process design, unrivalled hygiene standards and a focus on ecologically and economically sustainable operation are essential elements for success in the food industry.
Forestry Management
Forest managers must demonstrate environmental, social and economic performance, and forest owners and custodians (including governments) expect that the health of these ecosystems are maintained or enhanced.
We have successfully worked with GHD for several years, they are easy to work with, professional and consistently deliver both high levels of service and quality design solutions. They are true partners, they keep their promises and work in collaboration with us and other stakeholders to deliver and exceed our client's expectations.
