GOOD FEED STARTS WITH GOOD INFORMATION

Make the most of
what you have.

Compare your ingredients, find the nutritional gaps, and explore the lowest-cost mix for your flock.

Research you can follow.
Stage-specific bird targets, source-linked ingredients, and uncertainty kept in view.

YOUR FLOCK

Match the bird and stage

Bird purpose Growing or production stage Source profile

Bird ageweeks Batch to formulatekg equivalentThe reference feed amount. A wet mix will weigh more. CurrencyEnter local prices per kg as purchased. Changing currency does not convert prices; example amounts need replacing.

Calculation mode

Include foods with incomplete analyses, then show the estimated mix and the checks that remain unknown.

Nutritional fitting

Progressive fitting keeps useful earlier fits when finer nutrient data is missing. Nutrient upper limits apply throughout.

Ingredient inclusion maximums

Ingredient percentage maximums are ignored for your foods, allowed additions and suggestions. Nutrient limits, stock and required amounts still apply. Missing nutrient ceilings can permit very large supplement amounts.

Calculation settings Conservative · Core nutrients

88% dry matter is an editable working assumption. Core scope leaves vitamin and trace-mineral constraints unresolved. Neither scope certifies a feed as complete.

YOUR INGREDIENTS

What's available?

0 items

Ingredient source

Start without selecting any ingredients. Generate a recipe from the supported library, then exclude foods you can't source. Edit example prices to match your market.

Unavailable ingredients 0 excluded

Checked foods are excluded from recipes and suggestions. Uncheck a food to allow it again.

Or start with an example

Enter your actual prices and stock. Set a fresh-weight minimum when you want a food included: a price of zero alone does not require the solver to use it. Percentage limits refer to dry matter.

The Recipe lab carries over these foods, prices and analyses, then asks for your actual mixing weights.

FILLING THE GAPS

What could you add?

Allow ingredients you could buy, then compare the mix and cost with those additions.

10 kg reference feed × 88% dry matter = 8.8 kg dry matter.

Research, assumptions & nutrient definitions

Published breed targets are source recommendations. Where a separately established biological minimum is unavailable, the minimum calculation uses the same source target. Example prices and inclusion caps need your review.

Original source metadata is preserved. Table edits are marked as user changes. Raw JSON edits take effect when applied, or use the button below to review them in the table.

Estimated mode can use this food with partial analyses and will show the unresolved checks. Strict mode requires the active energy, amino-acid and upper-limit analyses. Enter measured values when available; blanks remain unknown.

Enter what you know about the food and its preparation. Add nutrient measurements below; missing measurements stay unknown.
