Nestlé taps regenerative agriculture for US wheat supply and Digiorno pizza ingredients

As part of its roadmap to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, the company aims to source 20% of its key ingredients through regenerative agricultural methods by 2025 and 50% by 2030.

“We need to find solutions that create shared value throughout the ecosystem – value for us, for farmers, for our consumers and the planet. This investment in wheat producers is just one example of how we are bringing this commitment to life across our supply chain,”

says Steve Presley, CEO at Nestlé Zone North America.

Over 100,000 acres of farmland will adopt regenerative practices such as water, energy and fertilizer efficiency. The surface area is double the size needed to grow the wheat for Digiorno pizza.
