20 Semper produces food for infants and young children – the most important connoisseurs of the future – and has long worked for healthy and nutritious food that is sustainable for our planet. For many years, cereals from Lantmännen have been used in our products, which meet the strict requirements for safe and nutritious baby food, so-called baby food quality. The new partnership for the range of porridge and milk-cereal drinks not only meets these high standards, but also contributes to a more sustainable agriculture that is good for our planet. The Climate & Nature program contains a series of measures and cultivation methods that reduce climate impact and at the same time benefit biodiversity. The cultivation criteria within the program include fossil-free plant nutrition, fossil-free fuels and precision cultivation, which leads to up to 50 % less emissions of greenhouse gases for the 2023 harvest*. Biodiversity benefits from chemical- free seed treatment. Pollinators thrive in the flowering zones included in the program. They pollinate many of our food crops and are therefore incredibly important for food production. In the fields, lark squares are part of the program (plots that have been left bare so that the song lark can land and find food). More open places in the cultivated landscape benefit this bird species. The Climate & Nature program uses so-called mass balance. This means that grain grown on farms included in the program is mixed with other grain in Lantmännen's supply chain. We at Semper can therefore not say that the particular package of porridge that a consumer is holding in their hand contains grain that has been grown according to Climate & Nature. But as the program uses mass balance, we contribute to a more sustainable agriculture while ensuring, as always, baby food quality of the grain. This legislation regulating baby food quality means, among other things, that only very low residual levels of unwanted substances may occur. These levels may vary in crops depending on soil type and weather conditions at harvest. The mass balance principle in Climate & Nature gives us access to grain in the high quality required. By being part of Climate & Nature, we at Semper contribute to the sustainable agriculture of the future - without compromising on the content and quality of our products. Sustainable cereals Semper and Lantmännen are in partnership for more sustainable agriculture. From the harvest of 2023 onward, Semper has joined Climate & Nature – Lantmännen's program for the future of agriculture. Together, the companies will contribute to a more sustainable cultivation of oats, wheat and rye. Image: Lantmännen. *compared to Swedish cereal cultivation 2015
