Smithfield Foods introduces new tool for farmers in the company’s efforts to reduce GHG emissions
Smithfield will provide this technology to farmers to help them improve their economic and environmental performance on 100,000 acres of fields that produce corn for swine feed.
Last year, Smithfield became the first major protein company to announce a far-reaching GHG reduction goal, of which helping farmers reduce nitrous oxide emissions is a key component.
"Improper fertilizer application can be detrimental to crop yields and profits as well as to the environment," said Kraig Westerbeek, vice president of engineering and environmental support services for Smithfield Foods. "With this new tool, we're helping farmers minimize costs and maximize profits while reducing potential fertilizer runoff."
