32 Cargill 2020 Annual Report
Value generation
We are continuously seeking new forms of generating value
through digital technologies and want to make them acces-
sible to our productive chains. Ever since we decided to
prepare Cargill for the digital future, we have looked at new
technologies to know how they can contribute to the food
system and agriculture. Data analysis, big data, machine
learning, artificial intelligence and blockchain have become
part of our daily lives and are part of our investments and
long-term strategy, and require the transformation of our
internal culture.
We have chosen the path of strategic alliances to move
forward. Besides partnerships with leading edge technol-
ogy companies and universities, we have a relevant role in
sponsoring agtechs and foodtechs, startups dedicated to
the agribusiness and food production, whom we rely on to
bring novelty to our innovation processes. Both globally and
locally, we participate in acceleration programs with busi-
ness participation and facilitation by the Cargill Digital Labs,
as is the case with the co-founded by Cargill, Farm to Fork.
Locally, we have established more than 100 specific con-
nections with startups and around 15 executed initiatives.
We have already reaped results with the global harvest pro-
ductivity prediction systems. With the use of big data and
analytical intelligence, we were able to add satellite images,
climate data and field information to act in a more efficient
manner on the productive chain and on the global supply of
agricultural products.
In another front, we participated in the co-creation of a dig-
ital platform in the shipping and transportation market to
make shipment mobility more intelligent, transparent and
accessible. This platform, based on artificial intelligence
and data analysis, integrates the logistics chain by providing
safety and efficiency in the purchase and sales operations of
agricultural commodities.
Our investments in the food and agricultural supply chains
go beyond simply supporting the growth of the company
and its clients. We also want to strengthen responsible
trade, improve the life of farmers and nourish the world in a
safe, responsible and sustainable fashion.
To promote innovation, we participate
in startup acceleration programs and
have partnerships with universities
and technology companies
