Alltech acquired a majority interest in Agolin

As governments, retailers and consumer brands make important commitments to sustainability, the greatest pressure is being felt on the farm. Alltech is dedicated to supporting farmers and ranchers with holistic sustainability: Producing more nutritious milk, meat and eggs at reduced environmental impact while ensuring the profitability of their business.

We are continuously scanning the horizon for opportunities and partners who can help us more rapidly advance our vision of positive impact. We found such a partner in Agolin and, today, acquired a majority interest in their business.  

Founded in 2006 in Switzerland, Agolin has developed and produced plant-based nutrition solutions that improve herd performance, profitability and sustainability. Its high-quality essential oil blends are scientifically proven to optimize feed intake and performance, including milk and meat production, according to a 2020 meta-analysis in the journal Animals.

Agolin^® Ruminant was the first feed additive certified by The Carbon Trust for methane reduction in ruminants (2018), an opinion based on academic research, published scientific papers, field reports and independent meta-analysis. In October 2020, the University of California, Davis, published a paper further examining the effects of Agolin^® Ruminant. We encourage you to review its findings.

Agolin’s essential oil blends complement Alltech’s nutritional technologies, and we believe that even greater benefits to producers can be achieved through the synergistic use of our technologies. These benefits include improved animal welfare, greater feed efficiency and conversion, more milk and meat, increased profitability and reduced environmental footprint.

We would welcome a conversation to discuss opportunities to deliver value to your business and supply chain through Agolin and Alltech together. Click here to read more about Alltech and Agolin’s new partnership.
