Introduction: Mistake 1: the yellow color of feed must have nutrition Compound feed pays attention to the overall and balance of its nutrition, but the depth of feed color is not directly related to the nutritional value of feed itself For example, in plant protein feed, the color of soybean cake (meal) is light yellow, and its nutritional value and palatability are relatively good People think that the color of feed is light yellow, and its quality is relatively good Just fine This is actually a misunderstanding In fact, as long as we can scientifically and reasonably mix it, we can still mix it with a nutrient balanced feed In order to pursue high profits and make use of the people's psychology of pursuing feed color, some feed manufacturers add chemical pigments to their production to replace inferior ones with better ones, so as to expand sales volume and harm consumers Therefore, it is necessary for farmers to prevent them Error 2: the quality of the concentrated flavor of the feed must be consistent The odor of the compound feed should be based on the inherent smell of the feed itself Adding a proper amount of seasoning agent to the compound feed can improve the palatability of the feed, stimulate appetite, increase feed conversion rate, and promote the growth of livestock and poultry However, they only change the physical properties of feed, and have little nutritional value to feed itself If one-sided pursuit of sensory effect, excessive addition of seasoning agent may produce some side effects (such as salt poisoning) Error 3: the amount of fishy fishmeal is not bad The nutritional value of high-quality fishmeal in animal protein feed is relatively high However, due to its limited output and relatively high price, the general dosage of feed factory is not too high Instead, fish flavor attractants such as fish flavor are added to increase the fish flavor of feed, that is to say, the fish flavor of feed is not the same Fully prove the amount of fish meal contained in the feed, and users should have a clear understanding of this Myth 4: high protein content in feed is an essential nutrient, but not the more protein the better In different growth stages, the absorption and utilization ratio of the body to the protein is different If the body supplies too much protein, not only can the animal not be converted into the whole body protein, but also can be consumed as the energy feed through a series of operation of the body, which not only wastes the protein feed, but also increases the burden of the animal kidney.
