Grass & Alfalfa Pellets for Livestock | Onken Ag Services

Why Choose Us

Three Generations. One Goal:
To Restore the Land and Support Healthier, More Profitable Livestock

A Family Working Together

Onken Ag Services is a true family endeavor. Founded by Rick Onken and powered by his three sons—Chad, Justin, and Joel—helping to keep the kids on the farm, the future of the business now rests with the next generation.

Chad’s boys Zack and Tanner, along with Joel’s boys Luke and Logan, lead our specialized pelleting and cubing program. We aren’t a big box corporation; we’re a family that raises the livestock that fertilizes the soil which produces the premium products that we utilize and now market to you.

Why Regenerative Agriculture Matters for Your Animals

Most mass-produced feed comes from multi-origin sources with heavy chemical applications. We chose a different path:

  • Natural fertilization: We use our own livestock manure to feed the soil, creating a closed-loop system.
  • Hoof-on-ground restoration: Our rotational grazin g builds organic matter, making our Alfalfa and grasses more nutrient-dense.
  • The Tenet Gene standard: Our own cattle are bred for tenderness and health; we apply that same high standard to every bale and pellet we produce.
It’s not just feed—it’s a health plan.

We’ve seen the results firsthand. From horses experiencing renewed joint comfort to livestock maintaining better body condition through the winter—clean, regenerative forage makes the difference.

“We started feeding Onken alfalfa pellets to a horse that had ongoing joint discomfort. After being on the pellets, the difference was noticeable. When we stopped, the issues came back — and improved again once the pellets were reintroduced.”

— Customer Feedback

“The quality is consistent, clean, and dependable. You can tell this feed is raised differently.”
