Measure What Matters
Track the full carbon footprint across Scope 1, 2, 3, including FLAG emissions.
Reduce Emissions
See where emissions come from and identify the biggest opportunities to cut them.
Future Proof
Prepare your business for CSRD, climate targets, and market access with data you can trust.
The Swine Challenge
Sustainability is no longer optional in the swine industry. It’s becoming the foundation for continued growth, market access, and public trust. Across Europe, pork producers are under increasing pressure to align with environmental goals, meet regulatory expectations, and respond to consumer and retailer demands for cleaner, more responsible food systems.
The challenges are multi-layered. Feed production is the largest source of emissions, yet often lies outside the direct control of pork producers. At the same time, manure handling remains a major concern, with strict local limits aimed at preventing nitrate runoff and ammonia pollution.
With EU policies like CSRD and the Deforestation Regulation taking effect, swine companies must now measure and report emissions, including Scope 3 (FLAG) impacts from feed and farm operations. For many producers, this adds financial and operational strain, especially where reporting systems are not yet in place.
To move forward, pork producers need tools that help them collect, calculate, and communicate sustainability data with confidence. Knowing your emissions baseline, improving nutrient management, and streamlining reporting are no longer just technical upgrades. They’re the first steps to identifying cost-effective ways to cut emissions, reduce waste, and future-proof your business.
Sustainable Pork Is No Longer Optional
Why climate, compliance, and markets demand action now
Efficiency Pressure
Feed waste and unmanaged manure are driving up costs and emissions. Processors face growing pressure to adopt biogas and precision feeding, or risk falling behind on both margins and climate goals.
Market Expectations
Retailers and buyers are raising the bar. Pork suppliers are increasingly expected to demonstrate climate targets, traceable feed, and reduced antibiotic use, especially as Europe moves toward CSRD.
Rising Compliance
Environmental regulations are tightening. The Industrial Emissions Directive and Nitrates Directive now apply to more farms, requiring modern nutrient management, emissions tracking, and verified mitigation, or risking shutdown.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pig farming’s carbon footprint comes primarily from feed production, manure emissions, and energy use. Technologies like biogas digesters, precision feed management, and digital sustainability platforms like ODOS can significantly lower these emissions by optimizing farm inputs and outputs.
LCA in swine farming evaluates environmental impacts from feed cultivation to pork processing. It helps companies identify hotspots, like soy sourcing or manure storage, and adopt more sustainable practices across the supply chain.
Sustainable pig farming protects water and air quality, reduces greenhouse gases, and ensures food security. It also aligns with EU regulations and growing retailer demands for verified environmental practices in meat sourcing.
Producers can comply by adopting manure management systems, switching to deforestation-free feed sources, and using real-time monitoring tools like ODOS to report and reduce environmental impacts.
Biogas systems convert pig slurry into renewable energy, reducing methane emissions and providing a circular economy solution. Campofrío’s Biogasnalia plant is one example, cutting 2,400+ tons of CO₂ annually.
Key technologies include carbon footprint tracking software, feed efficiency tools, solar-powered farms, and precision livestock farming systems. ODOS integrates these into a single platform for measurable impact.
Feed is the largest input in swine production. Using local, certified deforestation-free soy and improving feed conversion efficiency reduces environmental harm while cutting costs.
ODOS provides digital tools to measure, report, and reduce emissions, improve supply chain transparency, and comply with sustainability regulations. We turn ESG data into cost-effective actionable business value.
