In the realm of technological innovation, Monmilk has effectively reduced carbon emissions at the farm level through innovations such as the manure recycling management system and clean energy technologies. They have also improved efficiency and reduced consumption through digitization, making carbon reduction more accessible. Furthermore, their supply chain management has helped decrease deforestation and carbon emissions associated with bulk commodity procurement.
