August 21, 2020

Archer Daniels Midland Company reported a strong profit for its Q2, strengthened by its nutrition and agricultural services divisions. The food processing company also recorded strong performance in its oilseed activities.

In a joint venture with Brazilian meat company Marfrig, ADM released plant-based food products across North American and South American markets. While Marfrig owns 70% of PlanPlus Foods, and is responsible for production and distribution, ADM took the remaining 30% and now supplies the raw materials required.

ADM also set out its new advanced 2035 sustainability goals, unveiling its commitment to reduce its absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 25%, and its energy intensity by 15% by 2035. With the support of management firm WSP Global, they created a survey that identified several avenues of success, including: purchasing renewable electricity, increasing use of biomass fuels, transportation fleet changes, and equipment changes in some locations.
