As early as the 1970s, China's feed industry began to develop. Due to the limitations of conditions and technology at that time, the investment cost of pellet feed equipment was high and the technology was immature, leading to a low market penetration rate. With the development of feed pellets, more and more attention has been paid to feed pellets.
In foreign countries, except chicken feed, feed granules are generally used. In China, some regions in the south, especially the coastal areas, have witnessed rapid economic development. Small balls are widely used in these places. According to the investigation of relevant people, pellet feed accounts for more than 80% of ordinary feed.
Compared with traditional feed, pellet feed produced by Henan feed machinery has the following advantages:
Advantages: easy to store and transport.
Traditional feeds are usually powdered. In the process of storage and transportation, due to the different bulk density of various powdered feeds, grading will occur. There is no grading in the feed, which is well avoided. Moreover, pellet feed will not produce dust, reducing the environmental pollution rate. In addition, when raising livestock and poultry, it is not easy to produce dust, which has a protective effect on the respiratory system of livestock and poultry.
In terms of volume, the traditional powder feed is only 1/3 of its size after being pressed into pellet feed. That is to say, under the same means of transportation, the traditional feed used to transport powdered feed can now transport three times as much pellet feed. Powdered feed will produce some dust, which will adhere to the walls of the transport container, while pellet feed will not have dust, so it will not adhere, which also plays a role in saving.
Advantages: reduce pickiness and waste of animal feed.
As the feed particles are uniform in size and full in nutrition, it can ensure the vigilance and full price of the diet, avoid the selection of livestock and poultry by mouth, and reduce the waste caused by flying dust in air and water.
Advantages: There are special feed granulators or moulds for different livestock.
Now, for subdivided feed, there can be different pellet feed machines or moulds. For example, fish farmers can use expanded feed granulator, and pig farmers can use hard feed granulator. There are many other kinds of candidates.
