Shuman Farms's reported carbon emissions

Shuman Farms, headquartered in the US, currently does not report any specific carbon emissions data, as there are no available figures for their emissions in kg CO2e. Additionally, the company has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to climate initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other industry standards. As a result, Shuman Farms does not have publicly available information regarding their carbon footprint or specific climate commitments. This lack of data may reflect a broader industry context where many organisations are still in the early stages of measuring and reporting their emissions.
