Forever Feed technologies secures strategic

investment from Jr Automation

Forever Feed Technologies (FFT) to-
day announced that JR Automation
(JRA), has made a strategic investment
valued at over $4,000,000 to deploy
eight indoor FFT Grow Systems™, with
core components ordered in Q4/2025.
Each FFT Grow System, will produce up
to 50 tons of ForeverFeed™ sprouted
grain per day using 95% less water than
field grown alfalfa. FFT integrated its
proprietary indoor growing protocols
with JRA’s automation and digital tech-
nology expertise to design and build a
patented, large-scale growing system
capable of feeding more than 2,500
dairy or beef animals.
Forever Feed Technologies contracted
with JR Automation, a global leader in
advanced automation, to complete the
first FFT Grow System™ in October of River Ranch Farms. “We’ve been Automation and General Manager of
