Sustainable goodness
Lotus Foods sources rice from around the world to bring you high-quality, heirloom foods that help promote organic agriculture, rice biodiversity, and support farmers.
How it does good
Using smart agricultural practices to save water
Rice production uses around one-third of the planet's annual renewable fresh water, but Lotus Foods supports More Crop Per Drop™—a smart agricultural practice that protects and restores natural resources such as fresh water, improves incomes and quality of life for farmers, especially women, and reduces climate impact. These practices also cut in half the time that women have to spend transplanting and weeding, lowering their risk for health issues.
-
responsible sourcing
Lotus Foods sources organic and Fair Trade rice from India, China, and Southeast Asia using smart agricultural practices that use a lot less water than other farms. -
low carbon footprint
Flooded rice fields emit methane gas,which contributes to global warming. Lotus Foods combats this by reducing their methane emissions by 40% with More Crop Per Drop™. This technique uses half the amount of water to keep fields moist but not continuously flooded.
How to use it
This rice is great as a side or in stir fries, pilafs, puddings, or even breakfast cereals!
