Mr. Quick question We really appreciate all the efforts and contributions done in animal farming and with my humble request, is there any possibility of formulating this in an excel format to make it more understandable since it was done in different segments. Thanks 🙏
Thank you for your feedback. It is possible to formulate cattle ration using an Excel file similar to what I have explained in least cost formulation diet for poultry (th-cam.com/video/tEAarcwd300/w-d-xo.htmlsi=3l2HF4yzELsOW7TU). However, if you want to balance more dietary attributes such as RUP (Rumen Undegradable Protein), FME (Fermentable Metabolizable Energy), DUP (Digestible Undegradable Protein), etc. then you need to use a professional software like Dairy NRC using this link: nap.nationalacademies.org/resource/25806/Installation_Instructions_NASEM_Dairy8.pdf
I have several questions We did not take wheat or barley straw into account (nutritional value) Are there limits to the introduction of alfalfa hay or silage according to the stage of production? Is it possible to prepare a ready-made concentrated mixture with known analysis and control the missing quantity based on it? Are there recommendations regarding the increase in the prices of feed materials? For example, soybean meal in the early stage and then using cotton meal in the other stages Are particle lengths also recommended for hay and silage? What do you think of almond peels and wheat bran? In some areas, tree leaves such as mulberry, oak, etc. are used. What is your opinion? The last question concerns the transitional period. Please provide recommendations regarding nutritional methods and the relationship with metabolic disorders?
Excellent 👍, once again you did brilliant. Just for my curiosity which type of algebraic equations you have used. Secondly what if we have more than two energy ingredients and similarly more than two protein ingredients
I used 2 equations with 2 unknown variables (x and y). X represents the energy ingredients and Y represents protein ingredients, regardless of the number of ingredients. It means that you can have as many as energy ingredients or protein ingredients. What you need to do is to calculate the energy and protein content of all your energy ingredients and use it as x and do the same thing for the protein ingredients and use it as y. Please watch all episodes of "cattle ration formulation" videos to see how it was calculated.
Thanks so much sir for sharing all this information but can we have a least cost formulation topic regarding the small ruminants like goats, I will be very glad if you postively respond. Thanks 🙏
Yes of course. Least cost formulation works well for small ruminants as well. You will need to consider the forage to concentrate ratio and ingredients in the concentrate section
Wow.. congratulations sir and thanks so much for sharing this knowledge with us especially young people over the world and here in Africa.
Thanks for your comment. Happy to help
Very informative
Thanks

Thanks for your generous provisions. Dear Sir, In TMR what should be the least DM value of the feed?
Hi. Around 50%
Thank you sir for the explicit information you've been sharing.
Humbly asking if you can make a video about fish feed...🙏
Thank you.
Thanks for your interest. I'll make videos about fish feed too.
@@animalnutritionist thank you so much Sir I really appreciate 🙌
I have several questions
We did not take wheat or barley straw into account (nutritional value)
Are there limits to the introduction of alfalfa hay or silage according to the stage of production?
Is it possible to prepare a ready-made concentrated mixture with known analysis and control the missing quantity based on it?
Are there recommendations regarding the increase in the prices of feed materials?
For example, soybean meal in the early stage and then using cotton meal in the other stages

Thanks Sir, Make a Video about. predicting equations to calculate : CP, RDP and RUP (g/d)
