Feed production and processing is a complex and delicate process that involves multiple links,
aiming to produce nutritious, safe and reliable feed to meet different needs
The growth needs of things. The following are the main steps in feed production and processing:
Raw material selection and storage: This is the first step in feed production, and the selection of
raw materials is crucial because different raw materials have a direct impact on the nutritional
value and quality of feed.
At the same time, the storage of raw materials is also important, and it is necessary to prevent
problems such as moisture and mold to ensure the stable quality of raw materials.
Cleaning and crushing: The raw materials are cleaned to remove impurities and particles that do
not meet the standards, and then sent to a crusher for crushing to achieve the appropriate par
ticle size for processing.
Crushing can increase the apparent density of feed and improve its utilization efficiency.
Mixing and ingredients: Mix different ingredients evenly in a certain proportion according to a sp
ecific formula. Mixing equipment includes mixers, vertical mixers, etc. The purpose of mixing is
Ensure the uniform distribution of various nutrients in feed to meet the nutritional needs of anim
als. Efficient mixing technology can improve the quality and stability of feed, and reduce producti
on costs.
Processing and granulation: The mixed feed is processed by processing equipment such as steame
rs, presses, extruders, etc., to better absorb and digest it.
Finally, granulation is carried out through a granulator to form particles of certain specifications and
shapes. Granulation can improve the stability and storability of feed, and reduce feed waste.
Drying and cooling: The pelletized feed contains a certain amount of water and needs to be dried
to extend its storage time. After drying, the feed needs to be cooled to lower the temperature of the particles for storage and transportation.
