Thanks for the good information Dr. Ivey! Caloric Conversion, could be a good strategy to cluster the performance to be calibrated?

As we press for more production, knowing the effects of our diet changes become more important. Our website, www.feed2gain.com has large and small programs for this. Go there to get more information or email me at fjivey@feed2gain.com

Thanks for the good information Dr. Ivey!

I have one confusion: In the slide - example of mathematics on ingredients - Why you have considered 2% increased value (3319) of 1% increase (3254) instead of initial value (3222) for energy (Kcal/kg) calculation of wheat? Same calculation was done for energy of Soybean meal as well.

Is there any specific reason for that?

Yes I will like to discuss the topic, "Matrix Mathematics in Broiler Production" We are developing the framework for expansion of production in my country.....Trinidad and Tobago, West Indies/Caribbean....it will be interesting to hear some of the concepts captured in this dialog.
