President John F. Kennedy with the famous quotation from
his 1961 inaugural address, “Ask not what your country can
do for you–ask what you can do for your country.” ADM
contributed $6.5 billion last year to America’s balance of
trade.
On page 3 are graphs showing rising global consumption
of soybean meal and vegetable oils from 1964 to 2004,
and lysine from 1975 to 2004. For lysine, the equivalent
of ten more ADMs will be needed in the next 10 years, for
vegetable oil 5 more ADMs, and for soybean meal one more
ADM.
On pages 4-5 is a speech delivered by President
Eisenhower in 1953 urging the USA to export more food and
fewer weapons. Ike’s program [Public Law 480 or Food for
Peace] resulted in $50 billion in exports to needy countries
from 1954 to 1994.

“While the whole of ADM’s business can be divided
into families of products and services, virtually all can
be summarized in a single thought: value-added.” ADM
makes peanut oil at a mill in Augusta, Georgia. “Soybean
oil: Our Europoort facility in the Netherlands remains the
world’s busiest soybean processor, while in the United
Kingdom plans are underway to install a new state-of-the-art
vegetable oil refi nery and packaging plant at Erith [on the
River Thames about 13 miles east of the center of London].
Crushing and refi ning operations are also being modernized
in Hamburg, Germany. These terminals give us access to the
three most important rivers in Europe–the Rhine, Elbe and
Danube–all the way to the Black Sea” (p. 7).
ADM makes vitamin E from soybean oil distillate. With
the completion of a new state-of-the art facility in Decatur,
Illinois, ADM has begin to make distilled monoglycerides
from soybeans (p. 9).
“BioProducts: ADM BioProducts traditionally
introduces at least one new fermentation product each year:
in the past year the newcomer was xanthan gum for both
food and industrial applications. In 1996 ADM BioProducts
expects to add ascorbic acid (vitamin C), astaxanthan and
biotin to a lineup that includes monosodium glutamate,
sorbitol, citric and lactic acids and their salts. ADM’s vitamin
C will be produced in a brand-new world-class facility in
Decatur. Other products planned for the near future include
penicillin, vitamin B-12 and beta-carotene.
“Amino acids for the feed industry remain a major
focus of ADM BioProducts. Units to produce threonine
and tryptophan are now in full production. This, along
with our interest in a methionine plant, makes ADM the
only company offering all four leading amino acids: lysine,
methionine, tryptophan and threonine” (p. 13).
Isolated soy protein: Construction of increased isolate
capacity has begun at Europoort (Netherlands) and in the
USA. “Low nitrite ProFam 781 was successfully introduced
into the European infant formula market during the past
year. The Pacifi c Rim and former Soviet Union are growing
markets for isolates.” Harvest Burgers: “Since the beginning
of our joint venture with Pillsbury 46 million Harvest
Burgers have been sold under the Green Giant label... In
Europe Harvest Burger products are now being carried
by a German supermarket chain with over 2,300 stores.
Another German fi rm is introducing a line of Harvest Burger
frozen entrees that will eventually be marketed in seven EC
countries” (p. 15).
“Other soy-based foods: Work is underway on a soybased
dry mix that is the nutritional equivalent of milk.
This product would be distributed at little expense wherever
starvation exists or powdered milk is too expensive.
The product has a shelf life of over a year, requires no
refrigeration and is made by adding water.

alternative for North America. This fl avored cholesterol-free
