Alltech Supports Australia Relief Efforts

01/19/2020

The recent bushfires in Australia have devastated 25 million acres of farmland, more than the 2019 California and Amazon fires combined. Fires have resulted in 25 fatalities including first responders, killed as many as 500 million indigenous mammals, birds and reptiles and destroyed livestock.

 

Alltech subsidiaries Keenan Australia and Alltech Lienert have applied their resources to distribute emergency supplies including hay, finished feed, supplements, silage, water troughs, fencing and other necessities.  Company vehicles are delivering supplies in the affected states of Victoria, South Australia, New South Wales and QueenslandCompany employees are volunteering time to rebuild fences and provide on-farm support with an initial focus on dairies, apiaries, sheep and beef stations.

 

Goods and services to support farmers will be provided by the Australia Farming Relief Fund Alltech is pledging a dollar-for-dollar supplement for donations to the Relief Fund. Alltech will  contribute through the Pearse Lyons ACE Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit charity.
