INTRODUCTION Pelleting is the most common form of thermal processing used in broiler feed manufacturing, aggregating the particles of ingredients into a cylinder by means of mechanical pressure, moisture, and temperature. A wide range of temperature and moisture can be used during conditioning, usually from 60°C to 100°C and 12 to 18% moisture (Hancock, 1992). Increase in feed intake (FI) is among the main reasons that motivate agroindustries to pellet feeds...

On Engormix's Spanish speaking community a great discussion has been originated a few months ago and is covering the experiences in the use of a pellet mill having 2 or 3 roll assemblies. A few manufacturer names came into the picture as CPM and Andritz being the most popular. A great debate between available surface area in the pelleting chamber verse pellet mill capacity has been created and there are some good comments/experiences from either end users or equipment manufacturers. It is my...

Hi friends, Has anybody used pelletted alfalfa in their dairy cattle rations. If I have chance I want to use it. But I have doubts because of the particular size of the TMR. If I use the alfalfa pellets instead of hay, the particular size of the TMR will be small. And I think this may cause the acidosis, affect the rumen metabolism. So If there is somebody has used it, share us his experiments, I would be glad. Thank you. ...

"You cannot improve what you do not control. You cannot control what you do not measure. You cannot measure what you do not define". (anonymous) It is very difficult to know where to begin a discussion about feed mill efficiency. Perhaps a good place to start would be a definition of efficiency. The Encarta Dictionary: English (North America) defines efficiency as 1. Competence, the ability to do something well or achieve a desired...

Introduction Feed manufacturing equipment has been shown to be a potential source of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) cross contamination. Wet decontamination has been found to be the most effective method for decontaminating the surface of feed mill equipment. However, this is not practical in most current commercial feed production settings. Methods to mitigate the risk of PEDV transmission in feed and feed ingredients have been investigated, including chemical...
