Shaping the future moves us forward.

AGRANA's annual report is a snapshot in time.

It is a look back, a picture of where we stand, and an opportunity for us to offer an outlook. With our forward-looking orientation, as a team we combine individual strengths that not only complement each other, but also form a powerful whole.

Together, we are shaping a future that will truly move us forward in all our spheres of activity. On the following pages, we present four of these areas that are essential.

Growing sustainable partnerships

from common goals.

We see our continuous endeavour to reduce emissions in our upstream and downstream value chain as more than just a challenge accepted: It is also an opportunity to deepen our relationships with suppliers and customers.

With our positioning as a bridge between agriculture and industries, we look at our value chains as a networked system. This holistic view allows us to identify appropriate emission reduction targets and actions.

We are a driving force in ensuring the implementation of advanced approaches such as regenerative agriculture in order to develop products with our partners that make it easy for people to practice sustainable consumption.

We are moving forward with renewable energy.

AGRANA's transition to green energy is in full swing worldwide. The green electricity campaign begun three years ago in Austria is already being rolled out to other countries and expanded by the installation of photovoltaic systems on our own production buildings. Step by step, this will accomplish the shift to renewable energy.

Besides the emission reduction potential of renewable energy sources on the electricity side as an instrument of defossilisation, several AGRANA sites already focus on advanced energy recovery technologies for the mechanical compression and utilisation of process vapour to significantly lower the amount of natural gas required for energy-intensive processes.

Future investments will target not only advanced vapour compression, but many different technologies. This will lead to a major reduction in energy needs and thus in the associated emissions.

Strong ideas keep us on everyone's lips.
