Kellogg has provided a grant to The Nature Conservancy (TNC) to provide efficient water irrigation resources to rice farmers in Arkansas, US, saving billions of gallons of critical groundwater a year.
In the lead up to Climate Week (September 21-27, 2020), the breakfast cereal giant has shared how its collaboration with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) to expand its Saving Tomorrow’s Agriculture Resources (S.T.A.R.) initiative in Illinois is paying off.
Kellogg’s collaboration with The Nature Conservancy to provide farmers with regenerative agriculture practices on 67,000 acres of Michigan farmland has prevented almost 3,900 tons of soil runoff from entering the Saginaw Bay Watershed since 2015.
The breakfast cereal giant’s CEO and chairman Steve Cahillane has promised to ‘do everything we can to leave the world a better place than we found it.’
