Feed & Grain
Service face to face.
We’re modern in most ways but determinedly old-fashioned in one: we’re hands-on in the feed business. That makes us different in an era when many feed organizations have reduced people in the field.
Our FSC livestock production specialists can take forage samples or take a walk through your feedlot. We figure the time we spend on-farm, learning what you need to accomplish, makes the products from our mill that much better. So does our extraordinary emphasis on safe feed.
When we do use our desks, it’s to help you access knowledge and tools for locking in your supply of feedstuffs or keying up a custom formulation. Our resources and our people equal your best service.

4-H Incentive Program
We Believe Each of Our 4-H Customers Deserves a Reward
Rather than focus our resources on buying one animal at the county fair, FSC prefers to reward all the future livestock producers who do their feed business with us. In true co-op tradition, we return a rebate to each of our young customers! By pre-applying for our 4-H Incentive Program, kids will earn a return on the feed they purchase from FSC. The rebate amount applies to a maximum six head of commercial livestock. We don’t neglect the 4-H members with small animal projects either, paying out something for all species in relation to the feed dollars spent with us.
