ADM’s Fourth Annual Regenerative Agriculture Report Highlights Growing Resilience Across the Food System

2025 programs engaged more than 56,000 farmers across 4.6 million acres in 11 countries

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ADM (NYSE: ADM), a global leader in innovative solutions from nature, today released its fourth annual regenerative agriculture report, showing how its programs are supporting farmers, strengthening agricultural supply chains and delivering measurable environmental outcomes around the world.

“Resilience starts on the farm. By improving and protecting soil health, farmers can be better equipped to adapt to changing conditions and maintain productive operations,” said Greg Morris, SVP and President, Ag Services and Oilseeds, ADM. “That resilience can extend across the value chain, helping strengthen the food system we all depend on.”

In 2025, ADM’s regenerative agriculture programs engaged more than 56,000 farmers across approximately 4.6 million acres, 11 countries and 10 crops. Compared with regional benchmarks, the programs resulted in approximately 946,000 metric tons of CO₂e reductions.

“ADM views agriculture as a powerful way to meet evolving customer needs, and our work in regenerative agriculture demonstrates ways in which we are uniquely positioned to connect agricultural production with lower-carbon markets at scale,” Morris added.

ADM also expanded collaboration across the value chain through new partnerships, including initiatives with PepsiCo and Mars, and General Mills and Walmart. These collaborations bring together farmers, ADM and downstream customers to help scale regenerative agriculture while creating value across the supply chain.

The comprehensive report includes:

• ADM’s global approach to regenerative agriculture, including its definitions, principles and practices.
• Updates on programs across North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific.
• Examples of how ADM connects farmers with technical assistance, incentives and downstream customers to help advance regenerative agriculture across the value chain.
• Insights from farmer surveys and consumer research.

Since 2023, ADM’s annual report has provided a transparent view of the program’s approach, progress and results, as well as the partnerships helping move the work forward.

“For this progress to last, regenerative agriculture has to work on the farm and across the value chain,” Morris said. “That means listening to farmers, using data to understand outcomes and improve our programs, and working with customers and partners to build market demand that can help these practices endure and grow.”
