General Mills, Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), and Walmart announced a strategic collaboration to accelerate regenerative agriculture across 40,000 Midwest wheat acres. The program focuses on key growing regions in United States — Illinois, United States — Indianapolis, and United States — Missouri where General Mills sources wheat from ADM for products sold through Walmart and Walmart — Sam s Club. Initial projects, with technical assistance from American Farmland Trust and Ducks Unlimited, aim to deliver improvements in soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration. ADM will facilitate on-the-ground implementation, providing farmers with technical assistance and financial incentives to adopt practices like no-till and cover crops. The collaboration builds on a 2023 commitment between General Mills and Walmart to advance regenerative agriculture across 600,000 shared acres by 2030, with programs already underway on over 560,000 wheat acres. It supports General Mills' goal of 1 million regenerative acres by 2030 and Walmart's goal to protect or restore 50 million acres by 2030.
