FCStone's carbon affiliate today announced a new consulting agreement with Heartland Co-op, a leading agriculture co-op providing products and services to its farmer members and patrons, that will evaluate Heartland's risks and opportunities in the context of upcoming and existing environmental regulations and legislation. As part of the engagement, FCStone's carbon affiliate will provide an annual environmental assessment of Heartland's entire enterprise, as well as specific recommendations regarding sustainability opportunities.

Coinciding with its new relationship with Heartland Co-op, FCStone announced that its carbon affiliate will now be operating as FCStone Environmental. The new name more accurately reflects the full range of services offered to help companies develop their sustainability programs and to understand, respond to, and manage complex new environmental regulations and legislation.

"Heartland Co-op has grown tremendously over its 22-year history and we are always looking to ensure our growth is managed properly, and that we manage that growth in an environmentally sustainable manner," said Larry Petersen, CEO of Heartland Co-op.   "Our new engagement with FCStone Environmental gives us the added expertise and resources to develop and implement the right strategies for our organization and members moving forward."

"All aspects of the food production chain impact the environment through use of natural resources during production. With more stringent regulatory pressures, and rising costs of natural resources, it's time for businesses in every industry to evaluate their current practices," noted Mike Kinley, Chief Operating Officer, FCStone Environmental, LLC. "FCStone Environmental is committed to helping companies like Heartland become more efficient and better prepared for a sustainable future, while at the same time reducing costs."
