We were honored to be invited to attend the Inaugural North Dakota Tribal Economic Development Summit in Bismarck. Our partners at NSF FARMS talked about how we can advance food security through innovation and collaboration. We're proud to partner with them to center all producers in that work.

We're proud of the work we do with World Wildlife Fund on the Next California project, and this article is an excellent look at both the opportunities and roadblocks that Delta farmers face in the speciality crop market. “If we took 5 percent of the acres and diverted them into almost anything that wasn’t a commodity, it’s literally an additional $2.5 billion in revenue, just at the farm gate,” said Pete Nelson, president and founder of AgLaunch, a Memphis farmers’ collective and ag-tech accelerator that is partnering with WWF. Processing the crops in the Delta would funnel even more money into the regional economy." Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eXbDUtq6
