2 Lortscher Animal Nutrition Inc. Has Over 60 Years Experience In The Animal Food Industry! Lortscher Grain was founded in 1948 by Dave and Marjorie Lortscher. 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 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.
