Since we began in 1945, the Adams family and Adams Land & Cattle have believed there’s always a better way. Last week, we took the next step and broke ground on a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) facility on our south lot.
Together with Neogenyx Fuels and Ameresco, we’re turning cattle manure into renewable natural gas – creating energy, capturing valuable nutrients for local agriculture, and investing in the future of Broken Bow and Custer County.
Using anaerobic digestion, this RNG facility will generate 1.2 million MMBtu of RNG annually, enough renewable fuel to replace more than 10.5 million gallons of diesel each year and displace the CO2 emissions from more than 5.9 million gallons of diesel consumption. And the impact reaches beyond sustainability. The construction will create dozens of jobs, with 10-15 full-time positions at the facility.
Our mission has always been to produce safe, sustainable, high-quality beef for a hungry world by weaving together technology, innovation, and the best production standards in the industry. This partnership lives that mission. It advances our commitment to sustainability, honors our responsibility to the land, and it moves us closer to our vision of building a business for generations to come.
On behalf of the Adams family, our leadership team, and all of our employees, we’d like to thank our partners at Neogenyx Fuels and Ameresco, our elected leaders, and everyone who attended and celebrated this momentous occasion! We’re grateful to share this exciting milestone with our community and look forward to what’s ahead!
