Super-Sustainability
Everyone wants a plant-based drink that tastes delicious, goes perfectly with hot drinks and is kind to the environment. It’s a tough nut to crack, but we’ve got it figured out. And who would have guessed that the humble potato was the answer?
A genius choice
Potatoes don’t need much to grow at all, making them a super-sustainable crop compared to others like soybeans, almonds, oats or dairy.
Twice as land efficient
Land suitable for food cultivation is limited around the world. So, it’s important to use it efficiently, e.g. to get as much food per square meter as possible. Growing potatoes is actually twice as efficient as growing oats in terms of land use.
