Pepsico supports Columbian potato growers’ irrigation project.
A PROJECT to increase potato crop quality and yield in Columbia is amongst the latest supported by food and snack producer Pepsico in the third year of its Positive Agriculture Outcomes Accelerator programme.
The programme helps local farming communities by investing in things like ag-tech.
The Columbian project involves installing sprinkler irrigation systems that will reduce water use.
Pepsico’s Vice President for Sustainable and Regenerative Agriculture, Margaret Henry, said: Our PAO Accelerator continues to provide a forum for farming communities to bring forth ideas and opportunities and receive the funding needed to get promising innovation off the ground.”
