Feed processing and manufacturing
Welcome to the page about Feed processing and manufacturing of Engormix; a source of knowledge on Feed processing and manufacturing.
The widespread occurrence of microorganisms in the environment leads to degradation of organic material including grain and feed ingredients. Managing raw materials under adverse climatic conditions is crucial for retaining acceptable feed quality. Grains can develop moulds that produce mycotoxin compounds either prior to harvest or while in storage. High moisture content in grain promotes the development of moulds and mycotoxin production. ...

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...

Whilst there can be no disputing the fact that the rollermills and the sifters are the main, key machines within a flour mill, there are a host of other machines scattered around the mill, wheat cleaning, bulk storage and packing areas that have significant roles to play in maintaining or enhancing operational efficiency on a site and it is these machines I intend to look at in this article. ...

Dear Users,
This is an interesting forum from our Spanish community, generated by Joel Gonzalez Jimenez from Chile:
Today we add water, salt zap methionine and separate the process of mixing of food formulas.
Would it be correct to add these products mixed at a temperature no more than 50 degrees??
What do you think??

Obesity has become a major problem in the UAE. Over 60% of Emirati, nationals are overweight. One of the chief causes of obesity is diet. Young Emiratis eat more and more high- carbohydrate, high-fat burgers and pizza in fast-food restaurants. Across the UAE over recent years, there has been a steady increase in food –energy consumption. Parents do not teach good eating habits to children, and many people lack knowledge about good nutrition or a balanced...

Essential trace micro minerals are components of enzymes and are necessary for normal functions of tissues and processes involved in reproduction. In the last years there has been a renewed interest in the bio-availability of minerals sources and this has led to the development of organic minerals. The chemical form of dietary trace minerals is as important as the quantity and chelated trace minerals have a greater potential for absorption than minerals in inorganic form. In chelated...

Bonjour,
I work in a feed factory and we are producing feed for shrimp. There’s a remaining of the finished product, resulting from the previous cycle. Its general characteristics are: micro pellet dimensions with a diameter of 2mm by 6mm long, 35 min of protein, 7 min of fat, 12 max of humidity, 3 max of fiber, 12 max of ashes, doesn’t contain a compactor, the feed only agglutinates by means of wheat starch gelatinization.
This is the issue: a reprocessing of the feed was proposed, from the...

Good day,
Which is the best way of determining the grade of starch gelatination during the conditioning? I’m aware that it’s done in an analytical lab, but is there another way (tables, organoleptic mechanism)? A colleague mentioned a temperature-based way, can someone enlighten me in this issue?
Many thanks
Dr. Sinclair

Several studies have indicated that distiller's grains contain antibiotics, which have been used to kill bacteria in the ethanol distilling process.
The distillation process requires a combination of enzymes and yeast to convert corn into ethanol. But bacterial organisms present during distillation can sometimes out-compete yeast in the breakdown of this sugar. The easiest way to kill these bacteria is to use antibiotics, which not only linger following...

Pelletizing distillers dried grains with solubles can be more art than science. Past attempts at pelletizing 100 percent DDGS have fallen short. Rising to the challenge, Ag Fuel & Feed LLC says it has manufactured a pellet die that will extrude a 100 percent DDGS pellet without additives or binders.
Gary Wobler was frustrated. The owner of Ag Pellet Energy LLC of Carmel, Ind., had worked for months to come up with a way to pelletize distillers dried grains with...

Salmonella contamination in live bird preharvest production facilities can usually be traced to three production factors: (1) feed contamination, (2) environmental contamination, and/or (3) egg transmission. Each factor has an influence on and interrelationship with the others. If an established Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) program is to be successful in reducing the total number of salmonella and other pathogenic microorganisms to as near zero tolerance as possible,...
