Today, a global team of more than 5,000 people shares this vision of sustaining and nourishing the world’s plants, animals and people. We deliver on this vision by improving plant, feed and food quality through nutrition and scientific innovation, particularly yeast-based technology. At Alltech Crop Science, we provide natural-based products and solutions to agronomic and horticultural challenges facing producers across the globe. Our goal is to seamlessly bridge the gap between science and sustainability. By sharing our expertise, providing constant technical support and exploring the intricacies of each region we serve, we are not only pursuing greater productivity, profitability and sustainability for every crop — we are working alongside producers and agronomists to build the future of agriculture. Through our innovative study of nutrigenomics, our nutritional technologies help animals maximize the nutrients in their feed for optimal well-being and performance. We work with producers across the globe to address the animal nutrition issues most important to them. We partner with producers to increase their efficiency, productivity and profitability through analytical services,. We bring traceability, quality and improved nutrition to the table. As a family company, we understand the consumer’s desire to ensure that their family’s meals are as safe and nutritious as possible. From our innovative use of organic minerals to our work in crop science, we focus on improving nutrient value throughout the food chain. In all of these endeavors, we are guided by our ACE principle, our promise that in doing business we have a positive impact on the Animal, Consumer and Environment.

What occurs when cattle are removed from the land? This #BeefMonth, we delve into our six-part video series, which examines the role of cattle in combating climate change. Throughout this series, we explore Alltech's research alliance with Archbold Biological Station Buck Island Ranch, which has has created a model for estimating the ranch’s carbon footprint — and the results have been astounding.

Alltech's research alliance with Archbold's Buck Island Ranch demonstrates a powerful insight that should be a front page headline: when cattle graze our land, we capture more carbon. Spanning 10,500 acres and home to over 3,000 cows, Archbold's Buck Island Ranch has diligently collected data for over 30 years to evaluate the ecosystem associated with its beef cattle operations. Since 2019, our agricultural scientists have collaborated closely with Archbold Biological Station's ecologists on their expansive ranch to investigate its carbon emissions and sequestration potential. Together, we've developed a model to assess the ranch's carbon footprint, marking a significant milestone in our partnership. The results have been groundbreaking: the team has discovered that Buck Island Ranch can achieve carbon-negative beef production — and that same potential may extend to other beef ranching operations around the world. While this result is profoundly powerful, there is still much to be done. During my visit to Brazil this week, we have been discussing the possibility of implementing this model in one of the largest beef markets in the world. We are delving deeper into cattle's role in soil health through Alltech Crop Science and IDEAGRO. Most importantly, each of us plays a role in telling this story: We are better off with our cattle than without them. This week our team released one of the best video series Alltech has ever produced, setting a high bar for our company. I highly encourage you to visit our YouTube channel to watch the full series, as it is one of the best resources currently available to truly understand the profound role cattle play in saving our planet.
