For decades, feed formulation software has focused on one essential question: what is the least-cost formula that meets nutritional, legal and commercial requirements? At EuroTier 2026, BESTMIX will challenge the industry to ask a bigger question: what else should formulation software help us decide? Through eight practical capabilities, BESTMIX will show how formulation software can move beyond calculation to support decisions across nutrition, procurement, quality, production and the wider business.

BESTMIX brings 53 years of industry expertise, showing what feed software can do beyond calculating the least cost recipe.

What makes BESTMIX different

• Built around the realities of feed production. BESTMIX is not generic business software adapted to feed. Its functionality has been developed around nutrition, formulation, raw-material variability, production constraints, procurement and industry-specific workflows.
• More than standalone formulation. Formulation decisions influence purchasing, production, quality, pricing and profitability. BESTMIX connects formulation with those wider processes rather than treating recipe optimization as an isolated activity.
• From data to decisions. BESTMIX helps customers understand what their data means: what constraints cost, where optimization opportunities exist, which raw-material offer creates value, and how formulation information can support decisions elsewhere in the organization.
• One platform, different users. Nutritionists are central to BESTMIX, but the information created in formulation can also support procurement, production, quality, finance, management, data teams and feed advisors, a broader use of formulation intelligence that is becoming increasingly important in small to midsized and large, multi-site feed businesses.

“Technology should not replace expertise. It should amplify it, helping people make faster, more grounded decisions, work with more confidence, and turn complex operations into business value. That's the thinking behind everything we're showing at EuroTier this year.” Bea Van Deynse. Marketing Communication Specialist, Bestmix Software.

Today, more than 1,500 customers and 25,000+ daily users across 5,000+ plants worldwide rely on BESTMIX to manage formulation, quality, production and business data in one connected environment.

Rethinking what feed software should do

Feed businesses today expect more from the systems behind their decisions than a cheapest-ingredients calculation. They need to understand what is driving formulation cost. They want purchasing decisions connected to nutritional value. They need faster troubleshooting, better access to data, stronger process control, and closer links between formulation, quality, production and ERP.

At EuroTier 2026, BESTMIX will show how feed software can move beyond the calculation itself and become a broader decision-support platform, illustrated through eight capabilities the company calls its “eight signs.”
