US-based Ever.Ag, a leader in digital solutions for agriculture, has officially launched its new Sustainability platform, designed to assist the dairy industry—encompassing processors, manufacturers, and dairy farms—in providing sustainable, low-carbon dairy ingredients. The platform aims to ensure that sustainable practices are effectively implemented and tracked throughout the supply chain.
Matt Gould, Director of Sustainability Solutions at Ever.Ag said, “As the dairy sector seeks to address its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, our Sustainability platform provides an essential tool for brands to implement and track sustainability measures effectively. This platform ensures that sustainability is not just a label but a verifiable practice that enhances the entire supply chain.”
Abbie Cox Beckerink, Farm Sustainability Lead at Ever.Ag, said that their Sustainability platform harnesses auditable and reliable data to empower the dairy industry, enabling the companies to meet rigorous environmental standards and consumer expectations for sustainable products. “Our platform facilitates the certification of low-carbon ingredients, helping brands align with evolving market demands,” he said.
Shane Reynolds, SVP Commercial Operations, Milk Specialties Global, detailed the practical implementation, “Milk Specialties has been collaborating on the Ever.Ag Sustainability platform for the past year. This platform sets a benchmark in the industry for others to follow. Because the platform provides certainty around the primary data used to measure farm carbon footprints, it provides us and our customers the confidence that the data is accurate. This is essential to monitor and manage our sustainable ingredients rigorously, from the farm all the way to the brand, ensuring compliance and leadership in our sustainability efforts.”
The launch of this platform marks a significant advancement for the dairy industry, particularly for brands like Milk Specialties that need comprehensive, transparent, and auditable environmental data to meet sustainability goals and sustain market access.
