Animal feed is one of the largest expenses for livestock farms.
The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) reported feed as the largest expenditure in 2022, with 83.6 billion dollars spent on feed in the 48 contiguous states that year alone. As part of the agribusiness industry, we understand looking for opportunities to cut costs without cutting corners.
What if we told you there was a way to reduce feed costs, maintain or even improve nutrition for your livestock, and do something good for the planet at the same time?
At Quincy Farm Products, we’re passionate about transforming food byproduct into high-quality animal feed. We aim to provide a sustainable, business-smart alternative to traditional livestock food sources.
Here’s why upcycled animal feed ingredients are a forward-thinking, responsible strategy for livestock farmers and agribusinesses.
Upcycling food byproducts into animal feed is a cost-effective solution for farmers.
Since we use ingredients that would otherwise go to waste, we pass our savings on to you. However, know that lower costs do not mean lower quality. Our upcycled feeds often provide equal or superior nutrition compared to traditional feeds, thanks to our national partnerships and various sources we can tap into.
Our premixes and feed ingredients are also customizable to meet the nutritional requirements of livestock at every stage of life. Essential proteins and nutrients promote growth and reduce dependency on a single feed ingredient. Save time throughout your animals’ life cycles by trusting Quincy Farm products to provide the feed ingredients they need to thrive.
Using upcycled feed helps meet the consumer demand for sustainable products.
More consumers are becoming aware of the environmental impact of their purchases. They want to know that their food comes from sustainable sources.
By incorporating upcycled feeds into your operations, you’re making a sustainable choice for the planet and appeasing the concerns of a growing market segment. Sustainable practices can be a strong selling point for your products and potentially increase your market share and product asking prices.
Upcycled feed ingredients are a responsible choice for the future of agriculture.
Sustainable agriculture meets the current needs of farmers without compromising the future generations’ ability to meet theirs. By transforming would-be food waste into valuable nutritional resources, we can help minimize landfill waste and reduce methane emissions from decomposition. Sustainability and profitability can go hand in hand, and upcycled animal feed helps preserve our planet, your livestock, and your bottom line.
