Make the future of dairy farming brighter

Lin for the Future is an international community of farmers and partners involved in animal nutrition. We all share a desire to promote a dairy model combining productivity, health and sustainability for large herds. We are dedicated to promote linseed as a natural solution to reach a sustainable dairy model. Our values are based on science, open-minded and team spirit. Experiences from the field are also very important for us.

Our community is a forum for forward-thinking exchanges between different players in the sector. We offer a place for exchange and training, to face up the various future issues. We animate different technical themes like:

Productivity

Our smart linseed improves milk production and feed efficiency of herds. This video will help you to understand its mode of action. Discover the experiences of Lin for the Future ambassadors.

Reproduction and health

Inside Lin for the Future, we all share the same vision: It’s only by improving health that we can reach the highest milk production. Our smart linseed reduces metabolic disorders, acidosis risk and improves reproduction. Discover how Lin for the Future ambassadors experience a more natural feeding with linseed: it’s allowing them to manage a healthy herd with serenity.

Methane emissions reduction

Lin for the Future is more than a zootechnical approach: it is an environmental commitment. Our linseed solutions act on the rumen of dairy cows to limit enteric methane emissions. In zootechnical doses, our feed reduces methane emissions by 9%. A concrete step forward for dairy farmers and more sustainable agriculture. Watch the video to find out how it works and why our ambassador dairy farmers are committed to working with us.

Testimonials

Using EasyLin, we have completely eliminated the use of palm fat and glycerol propylene glycol.

I noticed already after 2 months using EasyLin, the success of insemination increased.

Today, I use TRADILIN for cows’ body condition, for reproduction, and also for milk out per kg dry matter consumed, which is very interesting for me.

We’re getting plenty of older cows now coming into the herd so the herd is slowly building to more and more cow numbers not because we’re bringing more young stock in, its because we’re keeping more of the older cows and they’re getting on fifth and sixth lactations.

Before, we were in the high average for the veterinary costs. We were close to 15 € per 1,000 L, today we are about 5-6 € per 1,000 L.

Feeding ExtruLin has done a lot for us personally, because you just feel a lot more satisfied when the cows are well and happy.

My experience was an increase of at least 2-3 liters milk per day while keeping milk fat and milk protein.

The less care for the animals, the better, the less stress. Nowadays, it’s not binding to make milk.

With involvement of EasyLin, the feed efficiency of our animals has improved.
