TechMix announced that it has hired Dr. Kevin Cain as bovine technical services veterinarian. Cain will be instrumental in helping partners and customers better understand how TechMix products offer physiological benefits that lead to optimized performance outcomes.

As the livestock industry evolves in response to consumer demands, non-pharmaceutical innovations are becoming increasingly important. TechMix is at the forefront of these solutions, it stated in the announcement, and Cain will be instrumental in advancing this mission. He will lead face-to-face technical support and collaborate closely with the bovine sales team to deliver data-driven insights and meaningful support to the industry.

Cain’s professional journey includes earning his doctorate of veterinary medicine from Kansas State University, after which he owned and operated a mixed animal practice in South Dakota focusing on cow/calf, feedlot and background cattle production, with special expertise in cattle reproduction and artificial insemination. In 2017, he sold his practice and transitioned to a role as technical service veterinarian with Multimin/Axiota to spearhead research and development efforts, conduct Food & Drug Administration technical reviews and provide continuing education. He also has hands-on experience managing his family cattle operation.
