Royal Agrifirm Unifies Animal Nutrition Under Nuscience
The Netherlands-based cooperative is bringing its animal nutrition brands under one global name, starting in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Updated on Nov. 6, 2026 in Nutrition
Royal Agrifirm Group is bringing its animal nutrition expertise together under one global brand, Nuscience. The transition starts in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, with other regions following in phases.
Why it matters
The change is designed to make it easier for customers to access expertise and solutions tailored to their nutritional challenges. Current regional brands remain in place until the transition reaches each market.
The announcement covers a cooperative founded more than 120 years ago with more than 3,000 employees. Nuscience combines premixes, concentrates, farm minerals, young animal feeds, specialty feed ingredients and protein ingredients, but the release gives no timetable for other regions.
The players
Royal Agrifirm Group
An agricultural cooperative founded more than 120 years ago in the Netherlands, with more than 3,000 employees and a subsidiary network across several continents.
Nuscience
The new single global brand under which Royal Agrifirm Group is consolidating its animal nutrition products and services.
Hamlet Protein
A protein ingredients company whose expertise is being connected more closely with the broader Nuscience offering.
The details
Nuscience combines premixes, concentrates, farm minerals, young animal feeds, specialty feed ingredients and protein ingredients with tools and services. Agrimprove and Earlyfeed are being incorporated into the Nuscience portfolio in EMEA, and Hamlet Protein will connect its protein expertise more closely with the broader offering.
Timeline
The press release announcing the brand consolidation was published on November 6, 2026.
Industry Context
The move follows a broader pattern in agricultural cooperatives of replacing separate regional feed brands with one global identity. It reflects an effort to present a unified offering across markets that previously operated under different names.
For farmers and livestock producers, the change means that products previously sold under separate regional names will increasingly be sold under Nuscience. Current regional brands remain available until the transition reaches each market.
The takeaway
Consolidated brands can simplify how customers find expertise, but buyers should confirm which product names apply in their region during the phased rollout.
