High quality research
At Ralco Nutrition, Inc.,
Mellencamp will be extensively involved in high-quality research and development
of products and combinations of products that improve the welfare and
productivity of livestock. Because Mellencamp is not a nutritionist, she sheds a
unique perspective on the animal nutrition industry. “Health is a critical
component for every production system, large and small,” Mellencamp said.
“Optimum animal health is a welfare issue, but it is also the key to
profitability.”
