Our guest - Dominic Frappier

Dominic Frappier has a degree in Animal Science from the Institut de technologie agroalimentaire de Saint-Hyacinthe. For 21 years, he has been sharing his expertise and passion at Jefo Nutrition, focusing on the sales of liquid products and additives for animal drinking water.   

For Dominic, providing quality water to animals is the foundation for allowing them to perform well. No feed additive, vaccine, medication, vitamin, or essential oil can compensate for poor-quality water. Dominic enjoys helping farmers improve the quality of their animals’ drinking water and works closely with them to understand their specific challenges to meet their needs.
