About dac®
The Direct Action Company, Inc. began in 1983 with a single product called Direct Action. It was based on a “new” feed technology called chelation, where a mineral is wrapped with an enzyme to naturally enhance the utilization of the mineral. Today, biotechnology in the feed business has gone from an obscure area of research to become an industry in its own right. We have been able to take advantage of the latest research and technology to give our customers products that will enhance the performance of their horses whether they are working in the fields or showing in the ring.
