Precision Conservation Management (PCM), the premier conservation program of the Illinois Corn Growers Association, has announced a new supply chain partnership with Kraft Heinz that will support Illinois farmers who implement in-field conservation practices like cover crops, reduced tillage, and nitrogen fertilizer reductions. The initiative, which launched ahead of the 2026 crop year, supports Kraft Heinz’s sustainability goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve soil health.
“This partnership reflects what PCM was built to do ensure conservation is not just good for the land, but good for farmers’ bottom line,” said Greg Goodwin, Director of PCM. “We know Illinois farmers are willing to adopt conservation practices when they make sense financially. Our role is to connect farmers with end users who value sustainable practices and identify win-win scenarios without added complexity.”
