Access to the best raw materials and an in depth knowledge of their nutritional value coupled with significant N. Ireland research investment has enabled us to launch a whole new concept in pig feeding. This has resulted in improved growth rates, improved feed conversion and reduced environmental impact via lower slurry nitrogen and phosphate outputs.

This revolutionary concept harnesses our ability to monitor the quality and nutritional value of raw materials, our nutritional expertise and our in depth research into the pigs requirements for individual nutrients.

The result is a range of diets that contain the correct balance of amino acids and energy that will drive efficient production of high quality lean meat, with minimal effect on the environment.

To meet with those demands set by today's consumer we ensure the safety of our feeds by a rigorous testing and monitoring programme of all raw materials coming into the mill and of finished feeds that leave the mill. Comprehensive HACCP procedures complement our ISO9002 quality standards.

The John Thompson & Sons Ltd Pig Technical Department prides itself on a strong team of specialists who give practical guidance to pig producers throughout Ireland on all aspects of Pig Production.

We also offer a comprehensive management bureau system, which includes management organisation, performance monitoring, sensitivity analysis and unit development cash flows.
