Difagri<\/strong> was created in 1973 in Saint Hilaire de Loulay, France, and acquired in 2011 by Philippe Gauthier, the company\u2019s current director. Since then, thanks to the support of a team of zootechnical experts<\/strong>, the company has continually developed year after year.<\/p>

And today, Difagri has become a private, independent leader in nutritional solutions for animal husbandry.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
