Business Overview

Feed raw materials are agricultural and industrial products used to manufacture animal feed for poultry, cattle, fish, goats, and other livestock. Common ingredients include maize, rice bran, wheat bran, soybean meal, mustard cake, groundnut cake, fish meal, bone meal, limestone, and salt. These raw materials are selected based on their nutritional value, digestibility, cost, and availability. Proper combination and quality control during feed formulation ensure optimal growth, reproduction, and disease resistance in animals. Feed producers must analyze each raw material for moisture, protein, energy, fiber, and contaminants before use.

Frequently Asked Question

No. Different species require different nutritional profiles. For example, poultry needs high-protein, low-fiber ingredients, while ruminants can digest higher-fiber feeds.

By testing moisture content, crude protein, crude fiber, energy (ME), and absence of toxins, molds, or heavy metals.
