Land O’Lakes Purina Feed, LLC

Description

We mixed our first batch of feed in 1894. More than a century later, Purina leads innovation in animal nutrition. Our milestones mark the industry's turning points. Today, Purina discoveries are standard practice for growers and trainers everywhere. The force behind our quest for greatness is a talented group of Ph.D. nutritionists and veterinarians. Together, they have conducted more than 24,000 research studies in fields across the country and registered over 125 patents. We aren't newcomers to research. It's been part of our DNA since 1926. In fact, every Purina product you can buy was tested at our Animal Nutrition Center. To date, our research teams have analyzed over 1,500 nutrient combinations. Our 1,200-acre facility is an expansive working farm with separate units devoted to Equine, Dairy, Swine, Cattle and Companion Animal research. Caring for over 1,000 animals in every stage of development, our researchers seek vital new data in areas like digestive physiology, animal metabolism, and growth and development. Those insights drive product development and rigorous testing of new diet formulations, innovative milk replacers, and nutritional programs. All with a single aim - healthier, stronger animals that are the picture of greatness.
