Farmers Edge™ announced a strategic collaboration with Merit Functional Foods (Merit) to source non-GMO canola and pea plant-based proteins from growers with data-driven farming practices. Through this alliance, Farmers Edge growers now can take advantage of enticing premiums being offered by Merit—a tangible reward for maintaining accurate data records across their farm that verify specific crop characteristics required for the proteins, such as herbicide use and soy- or gluten-free rotations.
