About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service (USDA ARS) awarded a $17,275 firm fixed-price purchase order to Livestock Nutrition Center, LLC, a small business located in Keota, Oklahoma, for the procurement of custom cattle feed rations supporting an ongoing crude protein study at the Oklahoma and Central Plains Agricultural Research Center in El Reno. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, was awarded on April 27, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of October 15, 2026. This sole-source procurement was justified based on the specialized and interdependent nature of the required rations, which are designed to prevent acidosis while maintaining research continuity in a tiered feeding program for steers.

Livestock Nutrition Center will deliver two distinct total mixed finisher ration formulations with precise specifications for crude protein, energy levels, minerals, vitamins, and roughage composition, along with specialized roughage pellets in bulk quantities. The contractor brings demonstrated expertise in producing specification-driven livestock feed products for federal research and institutional applications, with a history of prior awards from USDA ARS and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. This contract supports the Agricultural Research Service's ongoing mission to conduct agricultural research and develop improved livestock feeding practices through controlled feeding studies.
