Verity partners with Minnesota Soybean Processors to track, verify sustainable agriculture attributes

Gevo announced April 3 that its subsidiary, Verity Holdings LLC, is partnering with Minnesota Soybean Processors (MnSP) to implement Verity’s proprietary track-and-trace software.

This collaboration aims to unlock additional value for MnSP through export premiums while streamlining compliance reporting and auditability.

“This partnership with MnSP is a great example of how Verity’s technology empowers producers to capture and communicate the value of sustainable agriculture,” said Kimberly Bowron, the president of Verity.

“By leveraging our advanced data-verification and supply-chain transparency solutions, MnSP can document key attributes with confidence, ensuring that sustainably grown soybeans translate into real value for farmers, processors and international buyers alike,” Bowron added.

The partnership reinforces Verity and MnSP’s commitment to expanding opportunities in international markets for sustainably certified products, such as those derived from regeneratively grown soybeans.

Both companies share the view that this is the first of many opportunities to create value by ensuring complete traceability from farm to finished products.

Since 2003, MnSP has operated a soy-crush plant that processes 100,000-plus bushels per day, a refinery for producing feedstock for edible oil and biofuels out of crude soybean oil, and a 41-million-gallon-per-year biodiesel plant that has operated for 20 years located in Brewster, Minnesota.
