Our Responsibility
We’re proud of the significant advancements that we have made in our social and environmental goals, reflecting how we run our business and make a productive contribution to society.
Corporate Sustainability
Sustainability. It’s in our nature.
ADM is the bridge between the producer on the farm and the consumer-facing brands on our tables. Consumers around the world have made it clear that they expect their food and drink to come from sustainable ingredients, produced by companies that share their values like we do.
We are working across our own operations and leveraging our role as a major merchandiser of sustainable crops. We are focused on sustainable farming practices, traceability, and energy efficiency. Upstream, through our sustainable procurement policies and engagement with growers, ADM helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and advance sustainable agriculture practices.
Downstream, ADM researchers are innovating bio-based material solutions and building a portfolio of sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based products.
We are committed to leveraging our critical role in the supply chain to help create a more resilient and sustainable global food system.
