Dairy Business Driven By Social Media
At the beginning of the Alltech Global 500 I participated in a presentation on social media and I’ve been overhearing farmers talking about how to use it for their farm. During a discussion dinner last night I met a dairy farmer who has been using it to drive business on his farm. He’s a great example for all farmers. He’s …

This year’s Alltech Global 500 includes a full program for beef producers. As we’ve said many times before, if you’re in the dairy business, you’re in the beef business.

Alltech Improves Crops
Most people think of animal health when they think of Alltech. But did you know that they are also involved in plant and crop health? I learned this at the recent Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games when VP, Aidan Connolly (pictured right), introduced me to Molly Dugan. Molly told me all about Improcrop, a subsidiary of Alltech.
