Dairy Global
By Treena Hein
Thousands of dairy farms worldwide have worked to reduce carbon emissions over the last few years, if not for much longer, but only 4 have made a public commitment to being carbon neutral by a given date. The farm that’s first across the finish line is sure to get global attention, and inspire the dairy industry across the planet to achieve further carbon emissions reductions. The race is on! Here are the contenders.
Washington, D.C. (September 16, 2025) The Organic Trade Association (OTA) honored eight individuals for their longstanding commitment to advancing the organic movement during last night’s annual leadership awards event.
Whole Foods Market launched two on-farm pilots with Windfall Bio’s methane reduction technology (methane is a potent greenhouse gas, up to 86 times more powerful than carbon dioxide) at Whole Foods Market suppliers, Darigold and Straus Family Creamery.
“ The project results were extremely impressive, and we are evaluating further opportunities to deploy this technology throughout our network. ”
Joseph Button, VP of Sustainability and Strategic Impact at Straus Family Creamery
