No-Deforestation. No-Conversion
No-Deforestation, No-Conversion
Our planet's ecosystems provide us with essential resources, such as clean air, water and food. By preserving and conserving these natural habitats, we can ensure the sustainability of our environment and the well-being of future generations.
Goals
ADM is committed to 100% deforestation-free across all our supply chains by December 31, 2025.
ADM is committed to 100% conversion-free soybean sourcing in high-risk regions of South America with a cut-off date of December 31, 2025.
To meet our 2025 deforestation-free goal, we identified four key actions:
- Conduct a comprehensive deforestation risk assessment for all commodity and ingredient supply chains.
- For high-risk supply chains, identify direct and indirect volumes and determine a method for traceability.
- Develop monitoring protocols and supplier engagement plans to measure deforestation-free volumes.
- Engage a third party to verify results.
