With the increase in feed prices, feed costs account for an increasing proportion of total chicken costs. How to reduce the feed wastage and improve the feed conversion rate has become a hot topic in the aquaculture industry. In production, it is necessary to ensure the quality of chicken products, but also pay attention to economic benefits. The following is to formulate the amount of feed in the breeding process and how to increase feed conversion and reduce feed wastage. Explore.
First, determine the amount of feed
Different kinds of chickens have different production capacities and the requirements for nutrition are different. Therefore, the determination of the amount of feed and the proportion of feed and nutrition needs to be determined according to the type of chicken. According to my own farming experience, examples of recommended usage are as follows:
1. High-production laying hens (Hayland, Roman, etc.)
The total amount of feed needed per day can be determined by multiplying the feed amount by the number of chicks. For example, for raising 1000 chicks, the amount of feed needed on the first day is 31,000 = 3000 grams. Chickens of high laying hen breeds generally have an egg production rate of up to 5% at 150 days of age. The total amount of feed needed for 1000 chickens from birth to the start of production is approximately: [(3+4+5+6) ...+11+12)+(12+13+14...+20+21)+(21+22+23...49+50)+(50+50.5+51+51.5...+100)]1000=8805000 grams, That is, 8,805 kilograms, the average amount of material required for each chicken is 8.8 kilograms, and then feed costs can be determined based on the feed price budget feeding costs, so as to determine the feed budget and other early budget.
2. Fast-type broiler
The slaughter age of fast-growing broilers is generally 45 days, and their daily scheduled feed amount is 2 grams. For example, the amount of material needed to raise 1,000 chicks to the slaughter is approximately (2000+4000+6000+... +90000)≈2170 kg. In other words, a fast-growing broiler breeds at 45 days and consumes about 2170 grams per bird, weighs 1060-1250 grams, and has a feed ratio of about 2:1.
3. Local varieties
The difference between the growth rate and laying rate of local breeds is relatively large, the formulation of the amount of material is also slightly different, and the amount of material is mainly based on the needs of chicken growth and production.
Take Beijing Oil Chicken, an excellent local breed with slower growth, as an example: Its market age is around 90-120 days old, with an average body weight of 1.4-1.5 kg and a feed to meat ratio of 3.4:1, compared with the fast-growing type. The growth rate is relatively slow, and the demand for nutrient levels is relatively low, so full-price compound feed should be used. Before the listing, there is no need for restriction, and you can eat it freely.
Second, improve feed remuneration
The amount of chickens is determined to meet the needs of their growth and production, and timely restrictions. Feeding too much, the birds are too obese, too much abdominal fat, affect ovarian development, thereby reducing the production of eggs; the other hand, the amount of material is too small to meet the growth and production needs of chickens, chickens are too thin and there will be a lot of soft, broken, Sand, deformed and other shaped eggs. Feeding too much feed at one time is the main cause of feed wastage. Feeding should follow the principle of regular ration, less feeding Tim, divided feeding. Feeding time is generally 6 am and 2 pm. It is advisable to feed twice a day. The feed in the chute should not be stored too much. It is advisable to eat the following feeds. This will increase the appetite of the flock and promote the adoption of the flock. food. When feeding, ensure that the feed thickness in the feed trough is consistent, thereby increasing the evenness of the flock.
Pay attention to the observation of chickens and feces, timely detection and treatment of feed waste caused by diseases, such as enteritis, enterotoxicity syndrome, and the material.
Pay attention to the ambient temperature of the house. If the temperature is too high, the flock will have no appetite and eating will be reduced, which will affect the fertilization rate of the laying eggs. If the temperature is too low, the consumption of feed will increase and the cost of raising the animals will increase.
Therefore, in the process of raising chickens, it is necessary to increase economic efficiency and reduce the cost of raising the livestock. Therefore, it is necessary to control feeds that account for more than 60% of the cost of feeding, so as to increase feed utilization and reduce waste.
Herb extract we mainly supply are monk fruit extract, shiitake mushroom extract, reshi mushroom extract and other mushroom extract like lion`s mane extract. The main active ingredient among those powders are polysaccharides, beta glucan and so on. And monk fruit extract is one of our hot selling natural sweetener which can be added in very wide range of food and beverage.
