I-Archer-Daniels-Midland (ADM) kulindeleke ukuthi ivale unomphela isikhungo sayo sokucubungula ubhontshisi eKershaw, eSouth Carolina ngasekupheleni kwale ntwasahlobo, njengengxenye yesu elibanzi lokwenza lula ukusebenza nokunciphisa izindleko, ngokusho kwe-Reuters.
Lesi sinqumo silandela isimemezelo sangaphambilini se-ADM esichaza izinhlelo zokunciphisa izindleko ezingama-$500 million eminyakeni emihlanu ezayo. Njengengxenye yalokhu kulungiswa kabusha, inkampani ibilokhu inciphisa imisebenzi ethile futhi inciphisa abasebenzi bayo. NgoMashi, i-ADM iphinde yaqalisa ukunciphisa imisebenzi ngaphakathi kwesigaba sayo esikhulu kunazo zonke: ukuhweba okusanhlamvu kanye nokucubungula imbewu kawoyela.
Muva nje, ibhizinisi lithathe isinyathelo sokuvala imisebenzi yalo yokuhweba yasekhaya eShayina, isinyathelo esabangela ukudilizwa okwengeziwe emayunithi alo amabili amakhulu ebhizinisi: i-Ag Services kanye ne-Oilseeds.
“Ngemuva kokuhlola izindlela eziningi ezahlukene, sithole ukuthi isitshalo sethu saseKershaw crush asisahambisani nezidingo zethu zokusebenza zesikhathi esizayo,” kusho okhulumela i-ADM uDane Lisser etshela i-Reuters.
Indawo yaseKershaw iyindawo encane kunazo zonke izitshalo zesoya zase-ADM ezingaphezu kweshumi nambili zase-US. Ukuvalwa kwayo kuphawula ukuvalwa kokuqala kwesitshalo sokucubungula isoya e-US ngemuva kweminyaka yokwanda komkhakha wonke okubangelwa ukwanda kwesidingo samafutha emifino emakethe yamafutha e-biofuel.
Kodwa-ke, ukungaqiniseki kwakamuva mayelana nenqubomgomo ye-biofuel yase-US kanye nokwanda kokungezwani kwezohwebo—ikakhulukazi neChina, umthengi oyinhloko wesoya waseMelika—kuye kwabangela ubunzima obukhulu kulo mkhakha, okwabangela ukwehla kokukhiqizwa kwe-biofuel kanye nesidingo.
I-ADM izibophezele ekusekeleni abasebenzi baseKershaw abathintekile, inikeze usizo lokuyeka umsebenzi ngokwezimali kanye nokuthola usizo lokubekwa emsebenzini. Le nkampani ayikadalulanga ukuthi bangaki abasebenzi abathintekile.
