About agrosom

agrosom GmbH was founded in 2000 by Konrad Lichtin and is based in Mölln (Schleswig-Holstein). Using a patented extrusion process, the company produces linseed extrudates (Easylin, Extrulin, Agrolac, Agrolin, Epona) and also offers powder fats, lecithins, protein concentrates (Palvio), rumen buffers (Agro Balance) and other feed specialties. The extrudates are ground, mixed and extruded at the production site in Syke from raw materials such as linseed, wheat bran, rapeseed extraction meal, dried beet pulp, maize, field beans, lupins or sunflower seeds; degree of gelatinisation, fat availability and the it3 value as a central quality parameter are analysed batch by batch. In addition, agrosom trades in single feeds, compound feeds, premixes and additives and develops feeding concepts as well as analysis and advisory offerings such as milchblick and the ReMissionDairy project. Customers come from dairy farming, pig and poultry farming, equine husbandry, petfood and aquaculture. The company is certified according to GMP+ B3/FSA, GMP+ QM Milk, VLOG (extrudates) and Organic (DE-ÖKO-007) and maintains a sales site in West Mersea, Great Britain.
