O&T Farms Ltd. manufactures several highly digestible, palatable Omega-3 animal feed ingredients by blending flaxseed, canola and pulses in their advanced patented process. A branding of “naturally better” has become synonymous with health, nutrition and quality, and represents a promise to their customers. The Omega-3 ingredients are branded under the linPRO name and can purchased as conventional or organic. The key ingredient component in linPRO is a sustainable land-based ingredient called flaxseed. LinPRO was developed for layers, and has become the leading specialty feed for the production of Omega-3 Eggs in North America. Building on this success, linPRO-R was developed for dairy/beef applications and provides a ruminant-protected Omega-3 fat source. Research has been conducted at the University of Guelph over a four year period (2017-2020) and supports positive developmental programming (epigenetic) benefits into the progeny.
