    Do you ever stop to wonder where your Sunday morning poached egg came from? Or what about the sausage and bacon served with full English? It will come as no surprise to you that the animals which produce these products need to eat themselves too.

    ForFarmers produces feed for cattle, pigs and poultry in both conventional and organic livestock farming.


    Make no mistake:

    an awful lot of knowledge, research and innovation has gone into one of those seemingly simple-looking chunks of animal feed.

    We help farmers work in a sustainable way so that together we can safeguard the continuity of the farming business.
