The nutritional value of feedstuffs varies greatly. Feed analysis by ServiTech helps you properly balance rations, assess the need for supplements, establish market value or monitor process control — all critical steps for efficient and profitable livestock management.
 
Our standard analysis packages and custom options provide this information for grains, forages, finished feeds (both dry and liquid), byproduct feedstuffs and other commodities.
 
Our support doesn’t stop with quality analytical results. Our customer portal allows you to store, manage and evaluate your lab data to help make management decisions.
