EVOLUTION AND CULTURE
Westway Feed Products meets shifts in livestock nutrition, sustainability, and production systems through focused leadership
For much of the past century, livestock nutrition followed a basic formula. Farmers, ranchers, and dairymen relied on pasture, hay, and locally available feed, guided more by observation than measurement. Diets were broad, animals grew more slowly, and inputs were shaped by what was on hand rather than what was precisely required.
Today, that approach no longer applies. Nutrition is calibrated to the animal, matched to life stage and genetics, and supported by analysis, modeled outcomes, and a deeper understanding of how feed behaves in the rumen. Producers now work with diets that include co-products, targeted supplements, and ingredients designed to improve digestion, consistency, and output while managing cost and environmental impact.
The evolution from general feeding to precision nutrition has unfolded over decades. Companies that started in one era now operate in a completely different one. Westway Feed Products( Westway) traces its roots back more than 80 years, when it found practical uses for excess molasses. Over time, through acquisitions, partnerships, and growing technical expertise, the business has moved with the sector. Westway is now a leader in liquid nutrition and system performance across North America.
