PepsiCo, Cargill team up with local NGO for regenerative corn in US
"The collaboration offers a model for how we can drive meaningful impact at scale."
Agribusiness firms PepsiCo and Cargill have teamed up with an Iowa NGO to provide training and financial incentives to US corn farmers to transition to regenerative agriculture.
The two companies aim to expand regenerative agriculture practices across 240,000 acres of corn farms in Iowa by 2030. To achieve this, they are partnering with local nonprofit Practical Farmers of Iowa (PFI) to provide farmers with tailored advice and recommendations based on their region and planted crops.
