Read MoreWHEREAS: American families have long trusted Campbell Soup Company’s iconic brands for providing nourishing food products. Consumers are increasingly demanding healthy, natural, and safe food products, including those grown without pesticides that can harm the health of consumers, farmers, communities, and the environment.
Pesticide-based agricultural practices are creating growing risk to food companies. Scientists have connected pesticide exposure to cancer, developmental defects, and obesity, among other health harms. Consumers are increasingly demanding healthy, clean, and safe foods, and food companies are seeing increased litigation around pesticide use.

Weeds and insects develop resistance to pesticides with associated crop losses of $1.4 billion per year.
