SUSTAINABILITY - Stewardship

Synergy believes that profitable agricultural production is achieved by being good stewards of the land and by establishing great relationships with neighbors and the community. We are committed to:


  • Superior air, soil, and water quality

  • Gentle treatment of dairy animals

  • Community fellowship


Recent examples:

Improved air quality:
The recent construction of a methane digester at the Noblehurst facility allows the operation to convert methane gas from cow manure into electricity for commercial use. Most of the electricity produced is used to power the dairy, while excess electricity is sold for use by nearby customers. The process reduces greenhouse emissions from methane, the impact of which is 21 times greater than CO2 emissions.

Improved soil quality:
Reduced consumption of commercial fertilizers is vital to the sustainability of our precious land resources.

By joining together with neighboring crop farmers, Synergy will be able to increase the use of organic dairy manure as nourishment for the soil.

Enhanced cow comfort:
In order for cows to produce safe, high-quality milk, they must be housed in a clean and comfortable environment. The use of advanced free-stall technology allows milking cows to roam freely about the barn, allowing them to eat, drink, and sleep at their leisure.

Strong ties with the community:
In building the “Fieldhouse”, we have provided the community with a place for recreation and social events, which has further strengthened the community’s bond with Synergy partners.
