Walmart, General Mills and ADM announced a partnership to accelerate regenerative agriculture across 40,000 wheat acres in the U.S. Midwest. The program will focus on Illinois, Indiana and Missouri, providing technical assistance and financial incentives for practices such as no‑till and cover crops. The collaboration builds on a 2023 effort that targeted 600,000 acres and adds to ADM's management of nearly 5 million regenerative acres worldwide. By improving soil health, water quality and carbon sequestration, the deal seeks to strengthen supply‑chain resilience for Walmart and General Mills while supporting farming communities. The partnership reflects a shared‑value approach that aligns farmer livelihoods with long‑term product supply for both retailers.
