As a first milestone since joining the SAI (Sustainable Agriculture Initiative) Platform in 2017, Kalsec has worked with its U.S. growers to implement SAI Platform’s FSA 2.0 tool (Farm Sustainability Assessment). The FSA 2.0 tool evaluates sustainable farming practices covering environmental, economic and social aspects and is a widely recognized assessment in the food and beverage industry.
All farms growing Kalsec crops in Texas and Oklahoma have now completed the assessment process, and received an FSA Silver level rating. Crops rated as part of this assessment include: carrot, chili peppers, paprika, rosemary and beetroot, all traceable back to the farm and field.
