(NAPSI)\u2014Behind every sip of Anheuser-Busch\u2019s industry-leading beers is a farmer who worked hard to grow the high-quality rice, barley, corn, or hops inside that beer. That is why Anheuser-Busch is raising a toast to the more than 700 farmers across the country who make our beers possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For more than 165 years, Anheuser-Busch has been proudly connected with and committed to American farmers, many of whom it has worked with for generations. As the nation\u2019s leading brewer and a major American manufacturer, Anheuser-Busch is a significant purchaser of U.S. agricultural products, spending more than $700 million annually to source nearly all their ingredients from farmers across the United States. This includes 100% of the rice and corn and 99% of the barley in their iconic American beers.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAmerican farmers are the backbone of this country, and Anheuser-Busch has been deeply connected to the U.S. agricultural community and committed to sourcing high-quality ingredients from U.S. farmers for more than 165 years\u2014that\u2019s who we are,\u201d said Brendan Whitworth, CEO of Anheuser-Busch.<\/span> \u201cTheir success is our success, and we are proud to lead the beer industry in support of the farmers whose hard work brings our beers to life.\u201d<\/strong> \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This past spring, Anheuser-Busch became the first company to achieve the new U.S. Farmed certification for its Busch Light, Busch, Bud Light, Budweiser, and Michelob ULTRA beers, indicating that at least 95% of agricultural ingredients are grown by farmers in the United States. A symbol of superior quality and support for American farmers, the U.S. Farmed certification acts as a reminder of American farmers\u2019 dedication and encourages customers to choose products made with American grown ingredients. As the first company to be certified, Anheuser-Busch is paving the way for others to support U.S. agriculture by certifying its brands U.S. Farmed.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today and every day, Anheuser-Busch thanks American growers for their contributions. Remember to CHOOSE BEER GROWN HERE<\/a> to support our nation\u2019s farmers!\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
