WHY FEED YOUR ANIMALS NEW COUNTRY ORGANICS?

We carefully design and mill our feeds and minerals with the health of your animals as our top priority. We never use least cost formulations. Period. That means we do not change our formulas due to cost fluctuations of specific ingredients, so your animals receive the same feed throughout the year. 


Our feed is always fresh. We grind and mix in runs designed to keep just the right quantities on hand—stocked to maximize freshness while also ensuring there is always ample feed to meet ever-increasing needs. Now more than ever, we are helping you control your own food chain. 


We believe Certified Organic grains are healthier, safer, and more nutritious for your animals. If your animals then go on to become part of the food chain, they perpetuate that health and safety to others. Our Certified Organic feeds and minerals are certified by SCS Global Services

WHY SOY-FREE?

Soy is in seemingly everything. It’s an industrial feed ingredient. If it comes in a box and it is supposed to be edible, then chances are high that soy is on the ingredient list list. The likelihood is also high that the soy is transgenic (genetically modified). Americans eat more soy than traditionally soy-consuming cultures. 


We don’t want soy to be in everything. Our multi-grain formulations provide a complete amino acid complement. New Country Organics is (passionately) soy-free for good reasons:

  • Soy is high in phytic acid. Monogastric animals like chickens, pigs, horses, and humans don’t produce the enzyme phytase. Without phytase, phytic acid can block uptake of vitamins and minerals in the gastrointestinal tract. Not only is this a waste, but it is creating pollution concerns. 
  • Soy is high in phytoestrogens. This can have a multitude of health implications for all animals. 
  • Soy is a trypsin inhibitor. Trypsin is an enzyme that helps break down many different proteins. Inhibition of trypsin contributes to allergies. 

OUR FARMERS

Some of the best organics educators around are our farmers. They know their soils, their customers, and the environment. They are committed. We are fortunate to participate in a vibrant, knowledgeable, and driven organic community. We celebrate the farmers. This page is currently under construction.

Tips from Our Experts

Put a capful of organic cider vinegar into your chicken’s waterer. It will help to keep the bird’s pH balanced and healthy. 
KELP helps to prevent and cure pinkeye in your cattle. Whether an organic or conventional farmer, all agree that the magical stuff from the sea has healing and prophylactic properties the benefit anyone and everyone’s cows.
The old timers (and we all) love to give their animals and soil trace minerals, like Azomite, SEA-90, Diatomaceous Earth, and Redmond Salts. We feed these to our horses, goats, sheep, and pigs these to keep them healthy and happy. Some even make it into the soil, helping to generate healthy growing conditions. 

Goats and sheep will do well when you feed them Lespedeza. This lovely vine curbs nasty little barber pole worms, which is possible due to the high concentration of tannins found in the plant. Lespedeza is also a terrific source of protein and helps them to absorb nutrients into their systems. This practice is especially important during the winter when our friends are not able to spend as much time outside.
