What is your opinion about using expander and pelletization for processing poultry feed?
Do you know some data about improving FRC , DWG , mortality?
How you administrate enzymes in feed if you have an expander?
Thank you...

Hello, I am animal nutritionist from Pakistan, I want to know if anyone have worked on complete feed pellets for dairy animals. I want to work on it. Would you share with me your results and feasibility for making complete feed pellets please? What are the advantages of using it and what are the disadvantages or limitation in making it feasible for animal?
Look forward to your kind reply and comments Thanks Kabir A. Chohan...

INTRODUCTION TO PELLETING The Purpose of Pelleting Pelleted feeds have been defined as “agglomerated feeds formed by extruding individual ingredients or mixtures by compacting and forcing through die openings by any mechanical process”. Basically, the purpose of pelleting is to take a finely divided, sometimes dusty, unpalatable and difficult-to-handle feed material and, by using heat, moisture and pressure, form it into...

Introduction The importance of pellet feeding to broilers in improving the growth performance and feed efficiency is no longer questionable (Abdollahi et al., 2013a). On the other hand, the process of making pellets may also have detrimental effects on bird performance through chemical and physical changes that occur during pelleting. It is widely believed in the feed industry that the improved performance is due in part...

Pellet quality provided to meat birds throughout the industry is highly variable. Feeding birds pellets of poor quality can in part be attributed to an emphasis on pellet mill throughput to generate adequate feed volume. However, perhaps a more compelling reason that feeding poor quality pellets is permitted is the lack of understanding associated with the relationship between pellet quality, bird performance, and economic impact. Reasons for lack...

I. INTRODUCTION Sorghum has a relatively high starch gelatinisation temperature and for this reason sorghum- based broiler diets are often steam-pelleted at high conditioning temperatures to achieve acceptable pellet integrity. While compacted, pelleted diets offer a physical feed form advantage over mash diets as they facilitate prehension and increase feed intakes (Jensen et al., 1962), high conditioning temperatures may have adverse effects on...

Introduction The production of olive oil has raised over the past decade, as a result of objective circumstances: incentives (state, county and local), high price of oil, positive attitudes about olive oil nutritional value, the introduction of new technology of growing olives, a sufficient number of mills, etc. In Croatia, the annual production of olive oil is 5 to 5.5 million liters, with an average yield per tree from...

Introduction The benefits of feed processing are well recognized by the poultry industry. Pelleting is often used by feed mills due to enhanced feed usage and improved animal performance. In addition, pelleting results in increased nutrient digestibility due to the mechanical action of heat (López & Baião, 2004). Feed physical traits can be easily evaluated....

The primary objective of pelleting is to produce a palatable, high quality product with minimum production expense. Manipulation of the feed pellets during the storage, transporting, and transfer to feeding lots seriously reduces the number of feed pellets that finally reach the feed pans. It seems that the best solution for this problem is to increase the Pellet Durability Index (PDI) of the feed pellets using different settings in the manufacturing process and...

An experiment was conducted at Research & Development Centre, Islamabad Feed Mills, Rawat, Pakistan, from July 26 to September 01, 2007. The trial used 4,356 day old broiler chicks and was conducted to 35 days of age to determine bio-efficacy of a phytase enzyme (Phyzyme XP 10000 TPT, Danisco) on the growth performance of broiler chicks. Eight treatment diets were prepared as follows: 1. Without DCP&MCP and no phytase...
