NEWS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE November 2025 115 Through its ADM Cares program, ADM partnered with Conservation International to support Herding for Health (H4H)— a community-driven livestock management initiative addressing the needs of Africa's vulnerable pastoralists and rangelands. The H4H program, a partnership between Conservation International and Peace Parks Foundation, unites pastoralists, conservationists, and governments in Southern Africa to restore degraded rangelands, enhance biodiversity, and strengthen rural livelihoods. These communities live at the critical intersection of rangelands and wildlife, where sustainable livestock grazing is essential for preserving biodiversity and the environment. "Partnerships are a core driver of Herding for Health's success. We're excited to welcome ADM's expertise to support our field teams, farmers, and herders in meeting animal nutrition needs," said Corlé Swart, Project Manager for H4H at Conservation International. "With ADM's continued support, Herding for Health is well-positioned to deepen its impact across seven African countries; ensuring healthier rangelands for both people and livestock, and promoting market readiness for the communities we work with." ADM highlights that its support extends beyond funding. In August 2025, ADM's Creative Design & Development (CD&D) team provided a train-the-trainer session for on-the-ground implementation staff, sharing expertise in livestock nutrition and management to amplify the program's impact.

Against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions, climate uncertainty, and shifting trade dynamics, industry leaders and scientists came together to reaffirm their commitment to evidence-based decision-making. A central theme of the conference was the critical role of industry in supporting effective fisheries management measures. The conference also addressed the growing need for realism in how aquafeed ingredients are assessed. “As the sector evolves and objective facts are gathered, the narrative is shifting: responsible sourcing—rather than the simplistic binary of marine versus plant origin—is a key requirement for ingredient selection. This marks a significant turning point in how sustainability is defined and measured across the value chain,” said Petter M. Johannessen, IFFO’s Director General.
