ADM recognized for rapidly scaling its global regenerative
agriculture program to more producers and brands in 2023
ADM (NYSE: ADM) and its global regenerative agriculture program
were named a finalist in the Enterprise category of Fast Company’s
2024 World Changing Ideas Awards. Selected from a pool of more than
1,300 entries, ADM was one of 127 finalists recognized for
developing creative solutions to today’s most pressing issues.
As a leader in developing innovative solutions from nature and a
pillar of the global food supply system, ADM is scaling up efforts
to enhance the sustainability and reduce the carbon footprint of
the value chains in which it operates. Its global regenerative
agriculture program supports growers in adopting regenerative
farming practices that protect and improve soil health,
biodiversity, climate and water resources while supporting farming
business development. Simultaneously, ADM connects these
climate-smart producers with downstream CPG brands – such as
PepsiCo, Nestlé, and Carlsberg – to help them create more
sustainably sourced products and reduce their Scope 3
emissions.
The program has seen rapid success in the past year. In 2023,
ADM delivered more than 2.8 million regenerative acres, exceeding
its 2-million-acre goal, partnering with more than 28,000 growers
of corn, soybeans, wheat, peanuts, cotton, sorghum, canola and
barley as it expanded its regenerative agriculture efforts to new
regions, including the launch of programs in Europe and Latin
America.
Building on the program’s outstanding success in 2023, in April
2024 ADM announced that it is now targeting 3.5 million
regenerative acres in 2024 and is increasing its 2025 goal from 4
million to 5 million acres globally – an area roughly the size of
Massachusetts.
“This recognition is a testament to our global teams as well as
the incredible producer and brand partners who understand the
urgent need for greater adoption of regenerative agriculture
practices to build a more resilient food system,” said Greg Morris,
president of ADM’s Ag Services and Oilseeds business. “The last 12
months have been monumental in scaling the program. However, we’re
truly only getting started. We’re excited to continue expanding
regenerative agriculture to more producers and brands throughout
the world.”
