Sustainably Sourced
The bean of the castor plant has a number of advantages as a sustainable feedstock:
- It generally does not compete with food. The castor bean provides little nutritional value for man or animals. Almost all of its downstream values are in industrial applications.
- It grows in semi-arid to sub-tropical regions, often in remote locations where little else can sustainably grow.
- The bean is non-GMO.
- The castor plant requires very little irrigation and is naturally pest and drought resistant.
Arkema is a member of the Pragati initiative in India, a cooperative project with BASF, Jayant Agro and the NGO Solidaridad. Pragati encourages and educates local farmers on sustainable and responsible castor plant farming.
