Question 2

Chew’s Agriculture, a major egg producer in Singapore, has secured Singapore’s first sustainability-linked loan for an SME, a 10-year, SGD 27 million loan from DBS Bank. This financing is specifically for the construction of a new farm with larger cage-free facilities to ensure optimal conditions for its layer hens. A key feature of the loan is that Chew’s Agriculture will benefit from lower interest rates if it meets predetermined environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance metrics, specifically by adhering to Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC) standards. These standards encompass providing wholesome feed, appropriate environmental design, responsible livestock management, and skilled animal care, which contribute to both hen well-being and the production of more nutritious eggs. With 95% of its 500,000 daily eggs distributed locally, Chew’s is committed to renewing its HFAC certification, recognising the growing consumer demand for responsibly and ethically-farmed products. DBS views this as a significant step for SMEs in integrating sustainable business practices and expects more companies to advance their sustainability agenda through such incentivebased financing.

Question 3

Chew’s Agriculture has launched a pioneering initiative to convert chicken manure, a by-product of egg production, into a nutrient-rich soil enhancer. Developed in partnership with an innovative technology provider, this project reduces waste, lowers carbon emissions, and advances sustainable farming practices. Traditionally, chicken manure has been costly to manage in Singapore, with conventional treatment methods contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. This new approach converts manure into a valuable, eco-friendly product that enhances soil quality and increases arable land productivity. The long-term benefits include reduced waste and pollution, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and healthier plant growth through decreased reliance on synthetic fertilisers. All of which support sustainable agriculture. With this initiative, Chew’s Agriculture demonstrates its firm commitment to sustainability while setting a benchmark for the broader agriculture industry.
