Regenerative Agriculture
Grupo Bimbo supports regenerative agricultural practices that promote environmental, economic and social recovery, seeking resilience and adaptation of soils.
We recognize that, in the long term, the livelihood of farmers will depend on the availability and quality of natural resources. Likewise, the health and wellbeing of the entire population impacted by agricultural production will benefit.
By 2023, our goal was to reach 150,000 hectares registered in the Regenerative Agriculture program. Thanks to our actions and efforts in this area, we exceeded this goal by 13%, with approximately 170,000 hectares.
This included 7,000 hectares of corn, 200 hectares of potatoes, and an increase of 163,000 hectares of wheat. These results encourage us to continue working for constant improvement and to redefine our goals for coming years.
