Associated British Foods is a diversified international food, ingredients and retail group based in the United Kingdom. Its agricultural business is run through AB Agri, which calls itself part of the ABF family. AB Agri brings together compound feed, specialty nutrition ingredients and data-based services for livestock producers. Through Frontier, a joint venture formed in 2005 by Associated British Foods and Cargill, the group also has a stake in UK grain marketing and crop inputs.
For a livestock farm, AB Agri's role is mainly in the feed trough: compound feed and starter feeds for young animals, vitamin and mineral premixes that feed mills blend into rations, and additives that help animals make better use of their feed. Data services add another layer, turning production records into information for decisions on nutrition and performance. On the arable side, Frontier supplies seed, crop protection products and fertiliser to farmers.
