McDonald’s USA and the dairy industry are now working
together on innovative pilots on dairy farms, such as the Prairie
Farms Dairy (PFD) pilot. PFD has agreed to pilot and assess
The Stewardship and Sustainability Guide for U.S. Dairy, a resource
developed by the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy to help dairy
farms and other businesses measure, track and communicate
sustainability. The guide informs the use of corresponding tools
designed to track progress over time and identify opportunities
for improvement. PFD will pilot and test these tools at the farm,
fleet and plant level, then aggregate results using the Innovation
Center’s customized reporting tool.
