With today's increasing emphasis on efficient use of energy and its effect on the environment, feed mill managers must take an objective look at their process systems in order to maximize output against power consumption. The major sources of power consumption are clearly the grinding and pelleting processes. Without any doubt, savings can be made in the pelleting system, but this article will only examine the grinding process. When looking at efficiency, it is important to...

Agricultural production and the feed industry continue to suffer from losses caused by contamination with pathogenic bacteria and the associated consequences in livestock, such as reduced weight gain and increased mortality. Under such conditions, acidifiers consisting of organic acids or their salts offer a promising strategy to maintain feed quality and inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria inside the animal. The use of acidifiers has long been applied to both feed and food, where they...

Does Grain Need to be Processed? Although it is possible to feed whole grain to cattle, it is normally processed for a variety of reasons. Reduced separation and sorting of feed It is impossible to mix protein, mineral, or vitamin supplements and feed additives with whole grain and have the material stay well mixed from the mixer to the animals mouth. If whole grain is fed, mix the grain and supplement together with silage to help keep it...

Almost every miller in the world has considered introducing some degree of automation to the cleaning houses, mills and packing plants at some stage and many have been very successful. Sadly though, I also hear stories of things that went wrong, mainly because the automation projects were inappropriate for the mill in question. Not every mill lends itself to full automation. It is fruitless, for example, to attempt to fully automate an old, outdated mill, built before...

It is well recognized that feed represents the most significant cost of animal production. Even with sheep, which typically consume more forage (as a percentage of their diet) than do other domestic species, feed may represent 55% or more of total production costs. For poultry at least 70% of the production costs estimates are feed costs. In today’s industry, few producers or nutritionists would consider feeding animals without giving detail attention to energy and amino acid...

We conducted three experiments to determine effect of particle size, mill type, and added fat on flow characteristics of ground corn. In Experiment 1, corn was ground with either a hammer mill or a roller mill to produce six samples with different particle sizes. The particle size for the corn ground with a roller mill ranged from 1,235 to 502 microns with standard deviation ranging from 1.83 to 2.03. Particle size for corn ground with a hammer mill ranged from 980 to 390 microns with standard...
