Optimizing nutrient supply

When you work with Cargill, you work with a partner that has a deep understanding of nutrients and animal metabolism, years of experience in groundbreaking research in nutrition and animal management, and innovative technologies and services to help you maximize profitability.

Our team of consultants, researchers and technicians work together to help create custom solutions to promote good health in your cows, help maximize the production of high quality milk, enhance the beneficial characteristics of milk and dairy products, and source ingredients for the best cost formulations.

By harnessing the power of our deep understanding of nutrients and relentless customer focus, you can optimize the production, management and marketing of your operation. 

Nutrient supply and demand

To produce wholesome, high-quality milk, your cows need a wholesome, high-quality diet. Yet before that diet is formulated, it is critical to clearly understand both the nutrient supply that can be delivered through the feed ingredients and the nutrient demand of the animals.

At Cargill, we have developed several tools to measure, evaluate and record nutrient variables. This robust nutrient vocabulary gives you flexibility in creating formulations that allow you to respond to market conditions at the speed of business. These tools are integrated so that your dairy cows can get the nutrients they need, in the ingredients that offer the best cost, and in the physical forms that are the most effective.
