Feed Specialties

Feed Specialties is a specialized animal nutrition company that focuses on the development and manufacturing of high-quality premixes and specialty ingredients for the livestock industry. Based in Manson, Iowa, the company provides customized nutritional solutions primarily for swine, poultry, and dairy producers. In 2015, the company was acquired by Land O'Lakes and integrated into its Purina Animal Nutrition business unit. Their offerings include vitamin and mineral premixes, as well as technical consulting services to optimize animal performance and health. The acquisition allowed Land O'Lakes to expand its manufacturing footprint in the Midwest and leverage Feed Specialties' expertise in customized formulation. Today, the Manson facility remains a key part of the Purina manufacturing network, producing specialized feed components for regional markets.
