Water.org Partnership
ADM has been working together with Water.org since 2019. Through ADM Cares, ADM has given $1.4 million to support water and sanitation access in six countries: India, Brazil, the Philippines, Peru, Cambodia and Indonesia, reaching 816,587 people with water and sanitation solutions through 190,124 loans, which have mobilised $71.5 million in capital.
Landfill Diversion
ADM’s oilseeds site in Dharwad, India, partnered with a cement manufacturer to co-process the facility’s effluent treatment plant sludge into alternative fuels and raw materials. The site will divert approximately 100 metric tons per year from landfills through this partnership.
