This builds soil resistance, which stores carbon and microbes, which in turn feeds the plants instead of fertilizer.” “The reason I plant those species is to build the soil’s organic matter. “A cover crop means I am never going to harvest that crop for seed,” Brauer explained. Another important feature of regenerative farming involves alternately growing cash crops and then cover crops that typically consist of eight to 10 different species of plants. When a field is tilled, water is released into the air. Brauer explained that untilled soil can store up to five times more water than tilled soil. Regenerative agriculture is a conservation and rehabilitation approach to food and farming systems that focuses on strengthening the health and vitality of farm soil.Ī key component of this method is no-till farming. Through this program, Canidae’s partners are growing peas, milo, barley and oats with farmers committed to regenerative farming currently in Kansas and Nebraska with plans to expand to other states. Such pioneering initiatives include growing and utilizing regeneratively-farmed ingredients, using verified sustainable proteins, the addition of a new Sustain product line to the company’s premium, nutrient-dense portfolio, using one of the highest post-consumer recycled (PCR) content pet food bags in the industry, and a new retail partnership that removes single-use bags altogether.Ĭanidae’s involvement with regenerative farming began in 2016 with the launch of the Canidae Farms initiative led by Clint Brauer, regenerative farmer and owner of Greenfield Robotics, Cheney, Kan. “Being bold and entrepreneurial means understanding that making important and innovative changes means investing time, money, effort and resources,” said Bret Furio. Across our organization, I think that drive is what gets people out of bed and excited every morning, because we’re really pushing the envelope” If they copy us, that means that we’ve made real positive impact to a category that’s far behind others in sustainability, and we can change the world in our own small way. “Our hope is that if we do it right, and consumers love it, other companies in the space will have to take notice. “There aren’t many pet food companies that are willing to put the required resources into sustainability,” Furio said. This belief is a key element of Canidae’s culture and what Furio said brings people to work each day at Canidae ready to participate in the vision. To bring our sustainability mission to reality, we recognize that this will have a longer-term payback as well as help to shape the future of pet food.” “Being bold and entrepreneurial means understanding that making important and innovative changes means investing time, money, effort and resources. “From a business perspective, we are investing in the future with a mission-based approach,” Furio said. “They understand the limited resources that our planet provides and our resulting obligation and responsibility to leave the earth at least as good as we found it for future generations. “Consumers are getting much more thoughtful about their consumption and how it affects the environment,” said Bret Furio, chief executive officer, Canidae.
