Farm to Shelf: Pepsi teams up with Cargill on regenerative ag practices

PepsiCo is teaming up with Cargill to push forward regenerative ag practices.

Their efforts begin this year and will go through the end of the decade. The two will focus on nearly 250,000 acres through the corn supply chain in Iowa.

They are hoping to create a more resilient supply chain from farm to shelf.
