    Greenhouse gas (GHG) targets for 2030

    We help our clients achieve their GHG reduction targets, for both FLAG and non-FLAG emissions.

    • It is mainly achieved through deforestation-free sourcing (FLAG emissions).
    • The remaining deficiencies are remedied with regenerative practices (FLAG emissions).
    • Priority is given to low-emission supply chain partners (non-FLAG emissions).
    • Ingredient manufacturers are encouraged to switch to renewable energy sources (non-FLAG emissions).
    How we tackle climate change
  • A feed pellet that sinks underwater
    Reduce nutrient leakage

    Nutrients can leach from the feed into the water, causing waste and environmental damage.

    • We prevent leaks with highly durable pellets.
    • We increase nutrient utilization through more digestible feed solutions.
    Learn how food behaves in water
  • Hands under running water
    Reduce freshwater use

    Freshwater covers less than 3% of the world's water, but it is vital for life. It is threatened by pollution, overuse, and climate change.

    • We use feed ingredients that are less dependent on fresh water.
    • We reduce the use of fresh water in our factories.
    • We pay special attention to water-scarce regions.
    How we tackle climate change
  • Aerial shot of the tuna farm
    Functional solutions to optimize farm footprint and performance

    We have been working with farmers for a long time to make a real impact. Today, we go further:

    • We lead in feed yield, raw material use and local adaptation
    • We leverage innovation, expertise and collaborations
    • We co-develop feed that improves profits, people and the planet

  • Farmer pointing at soybean plant
    Trusted leader in value chain collaboration

    Today's solutions won't be enough tomorrow, and many necessary solutions don't yet exist on a large scale. The entire value chain will need to come together to solve these problems and find solutions

    • We connect farmers, researchers and industry to drive innovation.
    • We remove supply chain barriers to accelerate impact.
    • We create forums and associations to make them a reality.

  • Glass sphere reflecting the forest upside down
    Disclosure of information on high-risk supply chains

    The supply chain comes with serious sustainability risks that are often ignored until solutions appear. We want to change that pattern.

    • We face and communicate difficult problems openly and honestly
    • We talk about what has been done and what still needs to be done
