Australian leaders in whole life animal nutrition
100% Australian owned & supporting Australian farmers
About Us
ProviCo Rural’s dairy division was founded in 1999 by people with generations of direct farm and dairy experience, we remain proudly 100 % Australian owned and intergenerational. We know what Australian farmers need to improve farm productivity and animal health, because we are doing it every day ourselves on our farms. Our team has more than 50 employees, many of whom have worked in the business for decades, who share our passion for formulating, manufacturing, and delivering products that give production or companion animals the best start of life. We not only supply products with complimentary benefits like ProfeLac milk powders and RumenStart solid feeds through our ProStart Program we supply the best practise knowledge about how to use them.
A bit about our production.
ProviCo Rural is Australia’s only milk replacer manufacturer with an integrated supply chain, sourcing raw milk from Australian farmers. All ProviCo Rural milk replacers are manufactured at our fully accredited Victorian facility, allowing its Quality and Production teams to ensure consistent quality and supply.
Our ProfeLAC nutritional milk powders help thousands of animals grow up healthier and stronger. ProviCo’s specialised range of animal health supplements and calf-rearing products are carefully developed to ideally complement the ProfeLAC range and our ProStart Program.
We support farmers across Australia and New Zealand with a highly experienced team of nutritionists, veterinarians, calf rearers, and dedicated territory managers. Together, they provide expert guidance on our products and the ProStart “Feeding for Growth” program, helping farmers raise healthier calves with stronger growth rates and reach target weaning weights sooner.
Our advisory services also include the design and supply of milk mixing systems that improve on-farm efficiency and reduce labour demands for ProfeLAC customers. By choosing ProviCo Rural products today, farmers across Australia and New Zealand are optimising animal performance and building stronger herds for the future.
ProviCo Rural’s partnership with Tablelands Pastoral Co.
Tablelands Pastoral is an Australian-owned operation run by the Paterson family in Gippsland, Victoria. Across two properties spanning over 2,000 acres in Benambra and Boisdale, the focus has evolved to help address one of the industry’s key challenges and provide a large scale working example of Beef on Dairy. Working in partnership with local dairy farmers and the wider community, Tablelands provides a practical, scalable solution that gives thousands of surplus calves a productive and valuable life, that is able to be replicated in other geographic locations.
Tablelands Pastoral is commited to training and education of local and international people interested in learning and working in calf rearing.
ProviCo shares Tablelands’ commitment to sustainable agriculture, animal health, and on-farm profitability. Together, they go beyond discussion, actively investing in real-world solutions that support industry progress. Through a growing collective of committed dairy farmers, Tablelands and ProviCo provide a reliable, proactive pathway for surplus calves while continuously refining systems, genetics, products, and outcomes to deliver better results for farmers and livestock alike.
