Animal feed refers to food products specifically formulated and intended for consumption by livestock, poultry, and other domesticated animals. It is a critical component of modern animal husbandry, ensuring animals receive balanced nutrition for optimal growth, reproduction, and productivity.
Animal feed comes in various forms including pellets, mash, crumbles, and meals, and can be made from a wide range of natural and synthetic ingredients such as grains, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and additives.
Animal feed is essential for:
- Enhancing animal health and growth rates
- Improving milk, egg, and meat production
- Strengthening immune response
- Supporting reproductive performance
- Ensuring feed efficiency and cost-effectiveness
Packaging and Storage
We can supply animal feed in 50 lb (22.7 kg) and 110 lb (50 kg) bag packs and can ship a 20-foot container containing approximately 25 MT of feed material.
Storage:
- Store in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas to prevent moisture absorption and mold growth.
- Keep bags sealed and off the ground on pallets to avoid contamination from pests or dirt.
- Protect from direct sunlight, water, and excessive humidity.
- Use FIFO (First-In, First-Out) inventory practices to maintain feed freshness.
Handling:
- Use clean equipment for transferring and dispensing to avoid contamination.
- Ensure workers wear dust masks, gloves, and safety glasses where fine particulate feed is present.
- Avoid mixing with incompatible substances or expired materials.
- Prevent cross-contamination when handling medicated or species-specific feed types.
