Agriculture + Environment. Since 1994.

Who we are

Agriment Services, Inc. is one of the Southeast’s most experienced animal waste management firms. For over 30 years we have helped thousands of swine, poultry and dairy producers stay in compliance, manage sludge, close lagoons and protect their operations. Our name says what we do: Agriculture and Environment, working together.

Our History

    North Carolina places a moratorium on new swine farms. ASI’s Basic Monitoring Program keeps growing.

    ASI takes its programs national, starting with dairy farms in California’s San Joaquin Valley.
