BASF and Balchem Corporation are working together to bring next generation feed efficiency and health products to the North American swine industry. This relationship will open the door to a portfolio of products and technologies that improve feed hygiene, safety and overall animal performance. Look for offerings at World Pork Expo, June 8-10 in Des Moines, Iowa.

“Our alliance with Balchem helps meet the changing needs of the US swine market,” said Christian Nitschke, BASF Regional Head, Animal Nutrition North America. “As we combine strong market expertise and close customer relationships with superior technologies and production capacities, we are confident that the result will improve animal health and efficiency, leading to increased profitability for the pork producer.”

“BASF has helped the European swine industry by developing innovative feed solutions for more efficient and consumer-responsive pork production,” notes Jonathan Griffin, Vice President, Balchem Animal Nutrition & Health. “As we look to 2017, and the changes the US industry faces, we are proud to work closely with BASF to bring new feed management options to pork producers. As the industry continues to work hard to provide a safe and affordable food supply, while also meeting consumer demands, collaboration such as this will be imperative to developing the tools that will help us get there.”
