Sustainable bioeconomy: Arla dairy cooperative's first German innovation farm uses Eminex®
In mid-April, the first German innovation farm of the dairy cooperative Arla was inaugurated in Kamp-Lintfort (North Rhine-Westphalia). The aim of operator Kevin Anhamm is to test solutions and technologies for more climate protection, biodiversity and animal welfare in projects together with cooperation partners from science and industry and, if successful, to implement them across the Arla farms.
The Alzchem Group is on board as a cooperation partner with the processing aid Eminex®. During a tour of the farm in the presence of NRW Agriculture Minister Silke Gorißen, Alzchem employees presented the efficient avoidance of greenhouse gases during slurry storage and the many other advantages of Eminex®.
