80 | World-leading R&D company Lallemand Farmers will still enjoy the local service they’ve had with Nutritech. RURAL SERVICES » Nutritech International “We’re genuinely excited about the possibilities. In the sphere of microbial fermentation for animal nutrition and health, few companies have the vision and resources of Lallemand.” Every farmer is familiar with the pursuit of productivity. For many, it is the Holy Grail of business profitability. From December 2022, that pursuit gained significant momentum when leading animal nutrition company, Lallemand, invested heavily in New Zealand-owned company, Nutritech. In rural circles, people know Nutritech. Nutritech has been working side-by-side with New Zealand farmers since 1915, diagnosing nutritional gaps and supplying products that boost animal performance and bottom lines. With its shareholding partnership with Lallemand, Nutritech CEO Shaun Benefield believes they’re positioned to do even more to support farmers. “We’re genuinely excited about the possibilities. In the sphere of microbial fermentation for animal nutrition and health, few companies have the vision and resources of Lallemand. They have a creed that they’ve lived by since 1938: ‘New thoughts and new ideas create new deeds. When they are for the betterment of mankind may they succeed...’. That’s the reason their research and development is second-to-none. For Nutritech, that means we can offer farmers the latest nutritional breakthroughs.” Keeping the local touch Along with the advantages of Lallemand’s scientific support, farmers will still enjoy the local service they’ve had with Nutritech for over a hundred years. It’s a relationship built on trust and shared farming experience. Shaun explains the rural connection. “We’ve always had a range of backgrounds within our local field team. Some have managed farms and animals themselves and have their own personal experience and knowledge to call on. • to page 82 Karen Phelps Silostop Orange www.silostop.com info@silostop.com More silage, better silage, less plastic The most sustainable way to ensure a high quality silage!
