PepsiCo, Unilever launch collaboration to scale up regenerative agriculture
"When farmers thrive, we all thrive."
PepsiCo, Unilever and other food system players have launched a collaboration with farmer-facing organisations to scale up the deployment of regenerative agriculture across their supply chains.
Supporting Trusted Engagement and Partnership (STEP) up for Agriculture (STEP up for Ag) is a pre-competitive initiative meant to strengthen the capacity and sustainability of farmer-facing support organisations across North America and Europe. Through the scheme, lead partners including PepsiCo and Unilever will provide funding and advisory support to local farmer organisations, who in turn will accelerate the adoption of soil health practices through mentorship, education, and on-farm support.
