Lortscher Animal Nutrition Inc. Has Over 60 Years Experience In The Animal Food Industry!
1950 1965 1980 1995 20252010
Lortscher Grain was
founded in 1948 by
Dave and Marjorie
Lortscher.
In 1975, Gary and Betty Lortscher purchased
the company and changed the name to
Lortscher Agri Service, Inc. Main focuses:
grain, fertilizer, feed, milling, warehouse and
distribution, and research and development
with pet food companies.
The company was purchased in 2010 by the current ownership
group: Brent & Linda Lortscher, Tim & Yvonne Krehbiel, and
Rand Schafer. Due to continued success and growth of all
divisions of LASI, it became necessary to separate out the
different segments of business. The “Animal Nutrition” as
well as “Agronomy” divisions now operate as separate entities
but under the direction of the parent company, Lortscher Agri
Service, Inc.
