Under terms of the agreement, Neogen is granted the distributorship of the feed supplements BioPlus(R) 2Bw and GalliPro Tect WS designed for water application in the United States, Mexico, Caribbean, and Central America.

“With our tests for bacterial pathogens, natural toxins in feed grains and antibiotic residues, and our disinfectants and veterinary instruments that we already offer to the swine and poultry markets, Christian Hansen’s products are a natural fit to Neogen’s overall mission.” said James Herbert, Neogen’s chief executive officer.

Improve swine feed conversion

We expect strong growth in sales over the next three years,” said Dr. Bill Braman, vice president of marketing and sales, Animal Health & Nutrition, Chr. Hansen NA.
