SOUTH AFRICA POULTRY FEED MARKET

INTRODUCTION

Poultry feed is nourishment for farm poultry such as chickens, ducks, geese, and other domestic birds.Prior to the twentieth century, chickens were generally housed on general farms and foraged for much of their meal, eating insects, grain spilt by cattle and horses, and plants around the farm.

This was frequently supplemented with grain, household trash, calcium supplements such as oyster shells, and garden debris.

As farming got more specialized, many farms kept flocks that were too large to feed in this manner, and nutritionally complete chicken feed was produced. Modern chicken diets are mostly composed of grain, protein supplements such as soybean oil meal, mineral supplements, and vitamin supplements. 

The amount of feed and its nutritional requirements are determined by the weight and age of the chicken, their rate of development, rate of egg production, temperature (cold or wet weather causes higher energy expenditure), and the amount of nutrition obtained through foraging. As a result, there is a wide range of feed formulas. The use of less priced local ingredients provides new variants.

A proper amount of protein and carbs, as well as vitamins, dietary minerals, and water, are required for healthy chickens. Lactose-fermented feed can help chickens get more vitamins and minerals. Egg laying chickens require grammes of calcium each day, of which grammes are consumed in the egg. 

Oyster shells are frequently used as a calcium source. Certain diets also call for the use of grit, or small pebbles such as granite chips, in the meal. By crushing food as it passes through the gizzard, grit promotes digestion. If commercial feed is utilized, grit is not required. Iodine is supplemented using calcium iodate.

Clean and dry feed is essential; contaminated feed can infect chickens. Fungal growth is encouraged by damp feed. For example, mycotoxin poisoning is one of the most prevalent and undoubtedly under-reported causes of toxicoses in chicken.

Diseases may be avoided by keeping the feed and feeder in good condition. A feeder is a device that provides feed to chickens.

Feed can be provided using jar, trough, or tube feeders to privately grown hens or birds kept as pets. The usage of poultry feed can also be augmented with foraged food. Machinery is employed in industrial agriculture to automate the feeding process, lowering costs and boosting farming scale.

Feed is the most expensive component of industrial chicken raising.Mash refers to nutritionally balanced ground poultry. This is the first whole poultry ration.

Pellets are made from mashed potatoes that have been pelletized, or crushed and molded into pellets in a pellet mill. Unlike mash, where the contents can separate during transportation and the fowl can pick and choose.

The components in a single pellet remain intact, and the chickens consume the pellets whole. Pellets are sometimes too big for freshly born birds.Crumbles are pellets that have been broken down into granules by rollers. This is frequently used as chick feed.

Scratch grain (also known as scratch feed) is made up of one or more types of whole, cracked, or rolled grains. Scratch grains, unlike other feeds, are frequently dispersed on the ground, as opposed to being given in troughs, hoppers, or tube feeders. As a result, a high particle size is sought. Scratch grains are not a full ration because they just include grains and are used to augment the balanced feed.
