This episode centers on sustainability efforts that meat processors are seeking to make more effective and consistent and a company that offers a concept that helps entities move closer to those goals from the farm and ranch level. Indigo Ag works with a variety of consumer product companies by connecting them with supplies of low-carbon grain that is used in animal feed, resulting in reduced rates of greenhouse gas emissions in cattle, for example. Since reducing GHGs is among several factors that the meat industry cites as a goal to improve sustainability, Indigo Ag’s efforts may hold a specific role toward helping companies meet new standards with respect to the environment.
