Ingredion Sustainable Sourcing and Farm Improvement Project

In this project Ingredion will collect sustainable sourcing data from our grower base in order to provide anonymized data to our customers and to build baseline data from which improvements can be made in collaboration between Ingredion, our growers, and our customers along with NGOs and other stakeholders.  Ingredion will use this project to help reach corporate commitments for Ingredion and its customers and to serve as a basis for improvement projects for growers associated with Ingredion.

Engagement Targets

Growers

Chart shows new, retained and total number of growers enrolled in each year of the project. Per the project registration, this project has a target of 100 unique growers.

Acres

Chart shows entered and enrolled acres in each year of the project. Per the project registration, this project has a target of 125000 enrolled acres.

Notes: (1) Minor fluctuations in the number of retained growers is expected from year to year. These fluctuations may be due to year-over-year crop rotation effects or other factors beyond the control of the project. Enrolled acres represent the total number of acres on an individual farm in a specific year. The ability to report enrolled acres is based on the Fieldprint Project Standard requirement that individual growers enrolled in projects enter at least 10% of the acres managed for a specific crop. (2) Entered acres represent the actual number of enrolled acres for which data is entered in the Fieldprint Platform for analysis.
