Healthier Feed
Independent agronomy and nutrition scientists have discovered discovered ways to protect ecosystems and capture billions of dollars in value hiding inside livestock diets because of variety-level differences in nutritional quality. More corn and the best beans increase family farm revenue and advance food sector sustainability goals at the same time. Please sign up here to help U.S. farmers improve corn and soybean sales, boost feed quality, reduce feed costs, and reduce lifecycle emissions from livestock operations.
Green Energy
Corn and soybean farmers are biofuel production leaders. Biodiesel value can increase starting with soybean seed selection. ProActivism supports teamwork between genetics providers and biodiesel producers to unlock the billions of dollars in incremental value that are possible by selecting varieties that deliver maximum oil value. Please sign up here if you would like to help soybean growers produce the most biodiesel per acre.
Sustainable Food
When livestock feed or oil crops are produced more efficiently, family farm corn sales and food sustainability metrics also improve. ProActivists believe people should own farm and food sustainability. ProActivism works with FieldRise scientists and other farm and food experts to make it easy for everyone to measure their sustainability practices and find common ground around farming and food. Sign up here to join a movement that is powered by farmers, families, free markets, and field-level facts.
Health Protection
In 2020, university research confirmed what innovative pig nutritionists first noticed 10 years ago: Ingredients found in soybeans convey natural resistance to respiratory virus activity, reduce inflammation, and also help improve pig growth. Because pigs and humans have similar physiology, this finding could have human health benefits. Please sign up here if you are interested in health effects of soybeans.
Giving Voice to Family Farms
For far too long people from outside the farm gate have tried to tell family farmers how to farm. Science transparency will help protect the farm and food ecosystem.
Farmers and families have a positive new way to advance farm revenue and food sustainability together: faster and more economically. ProActivism takes a Natural path to farm and food teamwork that focuses on local ecosystem projects.
Today’s U.S. agriculture system is the most productive and efficient the world has ever seen. U.S. farmers feed 234 million more people with about the same amount of land that was farmed in 1900. The good news about farming is easily overpowered by opponents of modern agriculture. There is room for improvement. Modern agriculture is a fragmented system that is inflexible, and farmers and consumers are more disconnected than ever. Proactivism brings the farming and food worlds together to improve sustainability while protecting family farmers who are the foundation of the food chain.
