ADM has expanded its suite of SINCRO services to enhance the consistency and efficiency of farm animal production in Mexico, Indonesia and across Europe. SINCRO is a synchronized ecosystem of smart, data-driven solutions and services designed to support farmers and feed professionals with nutritional insight, feed formulation inputs and continuous monitoring with real-time adjustments for responsive operations management and improvement.
Services are delivered by dedicated in-house teams with specialized knowledge across multiple fields, providing expert consulting to farmers and feed professionals. These services are supported by digital solutions that can be deployed directly in the field. For example, in Indonesia, a key producer of aquafeed is using SINCRO to significantly improve feed formulation performance and accuracy with precise nutritional values. Full-year estimated sales for this producer grew over 60% compared to the previous year.
An integrator and egg producer in Mexico recently incorporated SINCRO services like near infrared (NIR) technology, mycotoxin analysis and formulation support with ADM feed solutions to improve eggshell quality, ultimately increasing marketable production by 10% and raising annual profits over $200,000.
"SINCRO offers a comprehensive, science-based, tailored approach to achieve precision nutrition for all species through the different life stages," said Pierre-Joseph Paoli, President of Growth & Commercial Excellence, ADM Animal Nutrition. "This service enables our customers and farmer partners to remain competitive and productive, giving them the tools they need to anticipate challenges, stabilize variability and support their journey to reach their targets for livestock management and financial success. As demonstrated in these examples, by delivering advanced insights and consistent value, we are strengthening customer trust and securing long-term business growth."
The suite of services encompasses the entire production process and is organized around three pillars: Control, Nutrition and Performance.
- Control: Ensuring the management of inputs and outputs through appropriate feedstuff sourcing and extensive physical analytical services, as well as providing tools and knowledge for effective quality control of raw materials and finished feeds. Supported by technology and digital apps for informed decision-making.
- Nutrition: Combining a full set of offerings to continuously ensure precise nutrition despite variability. This includes predicting nutritional values, science-based calculations of raw material nutritional values, formulation support, feed specification definitions and feeding programs.
- Performance: Aligning efforts and synchronizing data about raw material controls, nutrition, formulation and performance in farms. SINCRO enables real-time monitoring, reaction and adjustment for inconsistencies, with ADM providing the tools and team of experts to analyze data and make precise recommendations to improve results.
