The Innovation Center feed mill produces fresh ASG daily to supplement feed rations for dairy and beef cattle, using a small fraction of the water that's needed for field-grown alfalfa. The company pointed out that the FFT Innovation Center feed mill is the first phase of a commercial scale version that is targeted to grow up to 50 tons of ASG per-day, reducing on-farm risks due to droughts and severe weather conditions, and will move operators closer to their 2030 Net-Zero sustainability goals. The design of the FFT Feed Mill began in 2022 when Forever Feed engaged JR Automation, a Hitachi, Ltd. company, to help integrate time-test material handling technology with FFT's patent pending indoor growing protocols. According to the announcement, the robust capabilities of material handling systems and FFT's proprietary methods make the feed mill dependable enough to support the high demands of supplying fresh feed yearround on major dairy and beef operations.
