Superior Ag Feed Mill Announces Manufacturing Pause for Planned Easy Automation Software Transition

May 12, 2025


At Superior Ag, we strive to stay at the forefront of innovation and the ever-changing industry demands. In the coming weeks, we will be taking a key step in accomplishing that goal through the implementation of our new, comprehensive feed mill management software, Easy Automation. This implementation will better allow us to streamline workflows and billing, monitor performance, and manage resources all from one system.

To complete this transition, we will be required to temporarily pause all operations during the week of June 2, 2025. During this time, there will be no manufacturing, receiving or loading out of bulk feeds. Bagged feeds will still be available at the Feed Store and Feed Mill as supplies last.

The goal is to have this transition completed within two to three days for bulk feeds, and to be back up to full production by the week of June 9.

PRIOR PREPARATIONS
In the weeks leading to the closure, the plant will be pre-building packaged inventory in the effort to avoid impact to floor-stock feed service levels during this time. To prepare for the downtime, we are asking for your help in planning ordering needs to ensure you and your customers do not experience any service disruptions.

BULK FEED
  • If you have space, please contact us to make sure your bulk bins are full the week before to make sure you don’t run into supply issues during this downtime.
  • All orders need to be placed by May 23 for prompt delivery. The last scheduled bulk loads will be delivered on Friday, May 30.
  • Bulk feed production will be the first thing that comes back online during this process.
  • If we run into unforeseen delays, we do have neighboring mills on standby to help with production.
