The global feed industry enters 2026 in a position of measured resilience. According to the Alltech Agri-Food Outlook, production reached 1.44 billion metric tonnes in 2025, reflecting continued growth despite economic volatility, disease pressure and supply chain disruption. Yet success is no longer defined by volume alone—efficiency, quality control and risk management now determine profitability.

Rising input costs and persistent biological threats have made consistency more valuable than ever. In this environment, access to accurate, real-time data is critical, and this is where TEKPRO’s specialist equipment plays a defining role.

At the start of the production process, TEKPRO’s Samplex bulk sampling systems ensure that incoming raw materials are properly assessed. By taking representative samples from deliveries or production lines, Samplex equipment removes uncertainty from ingredient quality. This enables feed mills to identify inconsistencies early, avoid costly formulation errors and maintain tighter control over production standards.

Further along the process, pellet quality becomes a key measure of efficiency. TEKPRO’s Holmen pellet durability testers provide fast, repeatable analysis of Pellet Durability Index (PDI), giving operators clear insight into how well feed will withstand handling and transport. In high-volume operations, this reduces waste, limits reprocessing and helps optimise energy use—directly supporting tighter margins.

Protecting stored materials is equally essential. The Insectomat 5K detects insect contamination in grain samples before they enter storage or production, helping prevent widespread infestation. As disease and contamination risks continue to impact global supply chains, early detection is critical to maintaining product integrity and compliance.

Together, these technologies reflect a broader shift across the agri-food sector: from simply producing more to producing smarter. In a market defined by volatility, precision and control have become the foundations of resilience.
