Our Report Foundations
In 2022, we established the foundations of our Sustainability program as a new standalone business.
With input from across the business and in alignment with leading sustainability programs and partners, we developed a future-focused roadmap supporting key pillars of our business and value chain:
- Building a more resilient corn supply chain from the ground up through our sustainable agriculture program
- Supporting material carbon reduction in our plants through investment and continuous improvement
- Leading a zero-harm culture for every employee
- Living our core values of safety, integrity, excellence, and growth in our facilities and out in the communities we call home
Our report tells the story of this work and how we'll continue to build on it.
