Today the IAC is the first private elevator in Ukraine equipped with advanced Western technologies and modern machinery providing high quality and reliability jf the grain storage.

Operational technological plant for vegetable oil pressing is furnished with the equipment of American and Dutch origin providing 95% oil extraction. Its output is only ecologically pure products without use of any artificial ingridients or chemical catalysts. We are also working on basis of toll-processing contracts for manufacturing oil and cake further used for production of feed concentrates and compound feed.

Now KAU operational capacities iare used to produce protein balanced compound feed and concentrate for the needs of cattle, pig, poultry and fish farming under registered in Ukraine trade mark "Multigain", provided to KAU on exclusive basis by its owner - the "Atlantic Farms" Subsidiary. The basic protein component of "Multigain" concentrates and compound feed is soya beans - the best of naturally available and easily assimilable protein source in the feed formula with the lowest cost. The "Multigain" does not contain any hormones or artifitial growth stimulants and by the quality indices was called the best produced in Eastern Europe.

For instance, using "Multigain" some farms of Kyiv region, including IAC KAU in Myronivka, have reached weight gains in pigs up to 1 kg per day (100 kg in 5-6 months) and distributed dressed pork through Kyiv supermarket network; Gavrylivska, Morozivska and other poultry factories have made their production more competitive; the Farm "Land & Freedom" farm in Chernigiv Region was able to increase the milk yeild from 7 to 20 liters a day per cow.

We will custom manufacture balanced base mix to match your own cereals to dramatically improve your dairy, swine, bull or poultry production. We are ready to produce granulated "Multigain" by your individual order in bags or bulk and deliver it to your feed mill or to the farm.
