Better ingredients. Better rations. Better results.

We don't just put nutrition recommendations on paper. We manufacture them.

From the ingredients we source to the accuracy of every batch, our nutrition and production teams share responsibility for what ultimately reaches the bunk.

Since 1978, we've believe our customers shouldn't have to question what's in the load.

Congratulations to Ridley Feed Ingredients in Mendota, Illinois, on being named the 2026 Feed Facility of the Year by the American Feed Industry Association and Feedstuffs.

The recognition highlights their commitment to quality, feed safety, operational excellence, employee development and continuous improvement.

At Nobis Agri Science, we're intentional about the partners we work with. Quality doesn't start when ingredients reach our feed mill. It starts with the people and facilities we choose to partner with.

Congratulations to the entire Ridley team on a well-earned recognition.

We're growing at Nobis Agri Science, and we're looking for a few great people to grow with us.

We're currently hiring:
→ Nutrition & Management Consultant
→ Production Associate

But we're not just looking to fill positions.

We're looking for people who are passionate, take pride in doing exceptional work, aren't afraid to challenge how things are done, and genuinely care about the people they work alongside and work for.

We're family-owned, independent, and serious about helping dairy producers succeed. That takes good people from the nutritionists out at the farms to the team producing the feed those cows depend on every day.

If that sounds like the kind of team you'd like to pull up a chair to, we'd like to meet you.

Come see what we're building at Nobis Agri Science.

A well-formulated ration is only as consistent as the forage going into it.

Particle size matters. It influences:
• Packing
• Fermentation
• Feed stability
• Cow sorting
• Rumen function

That's why our nutritionists evaluate chop length and particle size throughout harvest while there's still time to make adjustments. Because once the bunker is packed and covered, those decisions are locked in.

Throughout corn silage harvest, our role is to help producers make better decisions in the field that lead to more consistent forage in the bunk, more consistent feeding throughout the year, and ultimately more consistent performance in the milk tank.

Harvest may only last a few weeks. But we're thinking about how this forage needs to perform for your cows all year long.

Do you know what's really driving your milk check? For dairy producers in Federal Milk Marketing Order 33, the answer isn't always simple.

In our monthly Happy Cows Eat Smart podcast, Nobis Agri Science engages Lawrence Jones, PhD, of the FARME Institute to take a deeper look at the factors influencing Federal Milk Marketing Order 33.

At Nobis Agri Science, our commitment is helping dairy producers build profitable, successful operations for the long term. That means our responsibility goes beyond the ration.

We want our producers to have access to the information, expertise, and perspective they need to understand what's impacting their business and make confident decisions about what comes next.

Corn silage isn't valuable just because of how many tons you put in the bunker. It's valuable because of how much of those nutrients your cows can actually use.

Kernel processing plays a big role in that.

When kernels aren't adequately processed, we're leaving valuable starch less accessible to the cow and potentially leaving milk and feed efficiency on the table.

That's why our nutritionists evaluate kernel processing while the chopper is still running. We're looking for whole or inadequately processed kernels and giving that feedback to the harvest team in real time.

A processor adjustment made today can influence how that silage performs in the ration for months to come.

That's another way we're working to protect next year's ration and next year's milk production.

Harvest timing isn't about hitting a date on the calendar. It's about capturing the crop at the right point to perform in the ration.

Every day the crop changes:
• Moisture
• Starch availability
• Fiber digestibility
• Fermentation potential

Harvest too wet or too dry, and you're creating challenges that can follow that forage all the way to the feed bunk. That's why our team monitors dry matter leading up to and throughout harvest so decisions are based on what's happening in the field not on assumptions.

Our job is simple: Help protect next year's milk production before harvest is over.

Great dairy operations don't just invest in their farms. They invest in their communities.

That's one of the many reasons we're proud to support the Copa Lechera Elkton 2026 tournament.

This event is more than a soccer tournament. It's an opportunity to bring together dairy families, employees, friends, and neighbors to celebrate the people who make this industry so special.

At Nobis Agri Science, we believe our responsibility extends beyond nutrition programs and feed deliveries. We're proud to support the communities our customers call home and the events that bring people together.

We'll be cheering you on this weekend!

Our best work doesn't happen by accident.

Each month, our production team comes together to review performance, strengthen communication, solve challenges, and identify opportunities to improve before they ever affect our customers.

These meetings aren't about checking a box. They're about creating a culture where continuous improvement is part of the job.

Because quality feed doesn't happen by chance. It happens when great people work together, ask better questions, and never stop looking for ways to improve.

That's how we build consistency. That's how we earn trust.

Because when our people get better… our customers benefit.

Every dairy only gets one opportunity to harvest this year's corn silage.

One opportunity to capture starch.
One opportunity to maximize digestibility.
One opportunity to build forage that supports your herd and milk tank for the next 12 months.

That's why preparation matters. We partner with dairy producers during and prior to harvest to help protect the quality of the forage that will fuel next year's herd performance. Our field decisions are based on real data, not guesswork.

What's your biggest focus heading into corn silage season this year? We want to know how we can help.
