The improvement also reflects changes in sourcing and formulation, including increased use of lower-impact and circular ingredients.<\/p>\n<p>Operational emissions in Cargill\u2019s aqua feed businesses also continued to decline, with Scope 1 and 2 emissions per ton of feed down 41.9% since 2020. This has been supported by energy efficiency measures and a transition to renewable for all electricity across aquafeed mills in Norway, Chile and Scotland. In Ecuador, the company also shifted from fuel oil to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for steam generation, reducing CO\u2082 emissions from that process by 17% in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>At the product level, Cargill is focusing on more system-specific solutions. In salmon, the company has introduced EWOS AQIUM, a feed designed for closed containment systems. In shrimp, ADAPT Low Impact, launched in Ecuador, has shown up to 30% improved nutrient retention in trials.<\/p>\n<p>On sourcing, more than 96% of marine ingredients from forage fisheries used in coldwater feeds are now certified or part of Fishery Improvement Projects (FIPs). During the year, the company also advanced its FIP portfolio, including new initiatives in Chile and Oman.<\/p>\n<p>Cargill continues to expand carbon reduction measures through its SeaFurther program, supporting customers in quantifying and reducing the footprint of feed at farm level.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the 2025 results point to a continued shift from pilot initiatives to scaled implementation across feed, sourcing and operations, as producers balance sustainability targets with farm-level realities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSustainable aquaculture is essential to feeding a growing world,\u201d said Pilar Cruz, Chief Sustainability Officer at Cargill. \u201cWe are advancing solutions across the value chain\u2014from feed ingredients to farm performance\u2014to help reduce environmental impact while supporting the growth of the sector.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cargill\u2019s aqua feed businesses has reported significant further progress in reducing the environmental footprint of aquaculture feed, alongside scaling more targeted nutrition solutions aligned with evolving production systems.
