Expanding Regenerative Rice Farming in Arkansas
Indigo Ag has announced a significant collaboration with Kellanova and Walmart to promote regenerative rice farming practices across Arkansas. This partnership aims to improve soil health, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and enhance water efficiency in rice production.
Key Partnership Goals
The project focuses on supporting growers as they transition to sustainable agricultural methods. These include:
- Reducing methane emissions from rice paddies.
- Implementing soil carbon improvement strategies.
- Applying water management techniques that conserve resources.
Kellanova (formerly Kellogg Company) and Walmart will work closely with Indigo Ag to source rice grown using regenerative methods, which are designed to restore ecological balance and long-term soil productivity.
Benefits for Farmers and the Environment
Through this program, participating farmers are expected to gain access to financial incentives, technical support, and verified carbon credit opportunities. Indigo Ag’s agricultural platform will provide data-driven insights and measurement tools to track the environmental impact of these farming improvements.
“Our collaboration reinforces the shared commitment to advancing climate-smart agriculture and creating resilient food systems,” the companies said in a joint statement. “By scaling regenerative practices, we contribute to healthier ecosystems and sustainable food supply chains.”
Shared Commitment to Sustainability
The initiative aligns with broader efforts by leading global companies to decarbonize food production and reward farmers for adopting regenerative methods. It represents a growing trend of corporate partnerships aimed at tackling climate change through practical, community-based agricultural innovation.
