Animal Nutrition & Health

dsm-firmenich Animal Nutrition & Health joins the Milk Sustainability Centre as a Strategic Partner

dsm-firmenich Animal Nutrition & Health have formed a strategic partnership with the Milk Sustainability Center (MSC) to help improve the sustainability of dairy farming operations. 

The collaboration will see the integration of dsm-firmenich’s  Sustell™, the industry leading lifecycle assessment (LCA) solution, with Milk Sustainability Center platform, delivering precise and comprehensive environmental footprint results from Sustell™ to dairy farmers. 

As a Strategic Partner alongside founding members John Deere and DeLaval, dsm-firmenich will bring its expertise in precision livestock farming to the partnership through digital and artificial intelligence technologies that enable farmers to make real-time, data driven decisions regarding farm management and the sustainability of farm animal production. 

Dr. David Nickell, Vice President of Sustainability and Business Solutions at dsm-firmenich Animal Nutrition & Health, commented: “The partnership between the Milk Sustainability Center and dsm-firmenich makes environmental impact assessment scalable and easier to implement. This will enable value chain partners to regularly track sustainability performance and to understand where and how to make profitable improvements with credible and transparent data and insights.”

Turning complex data into clear, actionable insights that unlock significant value and drive meaningful environmental improvements, the partnership enables seamless, automated integration of real-time, accurate primary farm data directly into Sustell™. 

Starting in 2022 the company has introduced artificial intelligence and data-driven insights into its FarmTellTM smartphone farm management apps to help farmers save time and profitably manage their farms. In August of this year, the firm introduced the latest version of its artificial intelligence-enabled farm management module, LORE Milk, in Brazil, with Europe to follow.
