Alltech
Alltech makes and sells animal feed, with an emphasis on improving nutritional content naturally. The company recently teamed up with California feed maker O.H. Kruse to develop and launch Green Feed, a feed for horses that uses locally available ingredients, has minimal grain content in order to use less of the global food supply, contains the optimal amount of supplements to decrease the nutrient content wasted into manure and reduce the risk of ground water contamination, and is sold in bags made of recyclable materials and printed with soy-based ink. Alltech is the first-ever title sponsor of the World Equestrian Games, which it will host in Kentucky in 2010, the first year the event will have been held outside Europe.
