Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc. has become the first major fruit cooperative worldwide to have its crop verified as entirely sustainably grown through the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative Platform (SAI), using the Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA). The SAI Platform defines sustainable agriculture as the efficient production of safe, high-quality agricultural products in a way that protects and improves the natural environment and the social and economic conditions of farmers and their communities, while safeguarding the health and welfare of all farmed species. FSA’s 112 questions measure farm sustainability holistically from soil health to water conservation practices to the health and safety of farm workers and local communities.
