Cargill RegenConnect has surpassed one million enrolled acres for the 2025 U.S. planting season, a milestone that underscores Cargill’s ongoing efforts to support farmers in adopting regenerative agriculture practices. Through partnerships with farmers across the United States and beyond, Cargill is helping to transform agricultural systems for a more sustainable, food secure world.
Since its launch in 2021, Cargill RegenConnect has provided farmers with the tools, resources, and incentives they need to implement regenerative practices like low till, no-till, and cover cropping. These practices can help improve soil health, increase water retention, sequester carbon and enhance biodiversity. The nearly 1,500 farmers enrolled in the U.S. program receive dedicated agronomist support, one-year contracts, payments for carbon sequestered, and choice of regenerative practices to adopt. This flexible approach helps farmers find the methods that work best for their operation as they transition.
“This milestone is not just a number; it reflects the growing movement of farmers who are integrating regenerative practices to help improve their soil health and resiliency. Most farmers that enroll in Cargill RegenConnect return year after year, and more than 40 percent of those returning growers added new acres for 2025, underscoring the momentum behind this shift,” said Brooke Hokana Hansen, Sustainability Director for Cargill’s North American Agriculture & Trading business.
The expansion of Cargill RegenConnect builds on the progress Cargill recently shared in its 2024 Impact Report, which highlights the company’s efforts to scale regenerative agricultural practices globally.
Cargill’s vision is to make regenerative agriculture commonplace across its global supply chains. Today, Cargill RegenConnect is available in 24 U.S. states. Cargill has expanded regenerative agriculture globally with programs in Canada, Australia, Brazil and Europe. In total, Cargill has introduced regenerative agriculture initiatives across more than 15 countries which include agroforestry and cattle grazing management, farmer trainings and research. These region-specific programs and partnerships help farmers access solutions and technical support tailored to their local growing conditions.
