Fish feed formulating 2

Starting from 1.The pulverizer

Materials like maize,,,soy products,,,,or any other materials that isn't easily digested by monogastric are to be pulverized using mesh size of about 1mm,,,most feed mill won't use such mesh as it tends to slow down the production compared to bigger size mesh,,,,

Improperly pulverized maize or soya meal,toasted soya,,ful fat soya,wheat,, are mostly wasted when included in the ratio as about 50% or more won't be digested by catfish
But each feed ingredient  also has its digestibility %
Each has distinct effects on the quality of the end product
Yes,,, feed material digestibility % can be increased when properly processed,,,for example finely pulverized maize that is steamed before pellets won't have digestibility % like crushed maize
 At the mixing stage...
All materials most be mixed evenly so as to have same feed taste,,quality and colour in a certain production
Feed additives are one of the major secret that's giving most imported feed over ours,,,meanwhile I'll update the house on additives that'll make your feed competes with coppens or any other,,,so the only way to get desired results is when all your materials are evenly mixed with the sensitive materials(additives )
 Not at all,,,if it's not properly pulverized you'll see soya particles at the bottom of your ponds when you drained
 Humivet Feed 2: All fish meal types has higher digestion %
Humivet Feed 2: Steam boiler isn't common as it's a bit expensive/most feedmillers don't know the value/economic effects on feed
 At the steam boiler stage....
Steam boiler .... To be continue

MAGGOTS; A HIGH PROTEIN FEED FOR POULTRY, FISHERIES

  MAGGOTS; A HIGH PROTEIN FEED FOR POULTRY, FISHERIES Feed is the single most expensive factor in all livestock production and Maggots are affordable, green and sustainable high protein feed (65% protein) for fish, poultry birds Maggot feed is noted to reduce mortality by close to 100% and are also a perfect replacement for current orthodox protein product offering in the market, soybean and carnivorous fishmeal and thus make farmers investment attractive. It has good nutritional value, cheaper and less tedious to produce than other animal protein sources. It is also produced from wastes, which otherwise would constitute environmental nuisance. The production system thus serves the dual purpose of providing a nutrient-rich resource as well as a source of waste transformation and reduction It has been suggested that the good growth and nutrient utilization capacity of livestock fed maggot-based diets stem from the high biological value i.e. nutrient composition and digestibility, o...

Fish Feed formulating

PRODUCTION OF QUALITY FISH FEED. Especially. The most important thing in feed production is understanding the nature of each feed materials as regards the physiological effects on monogastric(single stomach ) animals like catfish If we all have/use same feed formula we could all end up arriving at very different feed quality: Let me kindly explain using the basic machines mostly used in Nigeria especially for sinking feeds  Aims that must be targeted in feed are 1.Digestibility (fcr) 2.Palatable  Items that are not too necessary for proper pulverizing are gnc,,garri,,indomie/spaghetti,,,dried fish,,,among others  So kindly request for finely pulverize materials mostly cellulose materials so as your fishes to get optimal digestion  The most used fish feed equipment are sold by capsfeed or locally fabricated duplicating capsfeed imported machines To produce effectively,,,the machines that should be available are 1.Pulverizer 2.mixer 3.Steam boiler 4.pe...
