More processors talk farming; connect regenerative agriculture to ingredients.
Whether they were connected to corporate social responsibility or the anniversary of Earth Day, this winter and spring brought a host of manufacturer statements in support of “regenerative agriculture.”
The Carbon Underground and Regenerative Agriculture Initiative define regenerative agriculture as farming and grazing practices that—among other benefits—reverse climate change by rebuilding soil organic matter and restoring degraded soil biodiversity. This results in both carbon drawdown and improving the water cycle.
