Interview from Food + Tech Connect: General Mills on Why Biodiversity is Key to Success

The future of food is a biodiverse, sitting at the intersection of taste and sustainability. Biodiversity ensures the food industry can delight eaters with new and exciting foods from a diverse set of cultures, while also safeguarding our ecosystems and the genetic diversity required to ensure crops can evolve to better face threats like pests and disease, climate change and extreme weather.

Food + Tech Connect spoke with Shauna Sadowski, Head of Sustainability for the Natural & Organic Operating Unit at General Mills – which includes Annie’s, Cascadian Farm, Muir Glen and Epic – about why biodiversity is critical to the company’s success. Sadowski talks about General Mills’ investment in regenerative agriculture and shares specific strategies and resources for integrating biodiversity into your business.
