About The Company
AgSource is a broad-based agricultural service cooperative specializing in laboratory testing and the generation of value-added management information. AgSource began as a dairy records cooperative in 1959 to provide computer management information from Dairy Herd Improvement (DHI) testing. The cooperative has since grown to encompass all aspects of dairy information management service and has diversified its testing services to meet the broader needs of the agricultural industry. AgSource Dairy is the only full-service dairy management information provider in the country, conducting research and development, field data collection, laboratory analysis and diagnostics, meter service and outreach and education, resulting in high quality decision tools for dairy producers. We continue to provide for the changing needs of our members with advanced management reports, such as the Transition Cow Index® and KetoMonitor® and popular programs like AgSourceDM™ and MyAgSource® . AgSource Laboratories has become a leader in agricultural and environmental laboratory analysis and information management services and has become one of the largest soil testing organizations in the country. Some would be content to remain as we are today, but AgSource is unwilling to settle in the pursuit of excellence. In cooperation with our partners, AgSource strives to increase research and development of improved management decision tools, working together for the overall benefit of our members and customers and the agriculture industry as a whole.
