Are You Getting the Most Out of Every Bag of Hog Feed?

Feed is the single largest expense in pork production. For most operations, it accounts for 60% to 70% of total variable costs. That means for every dollar you spend raising pigs, more than half goes to feed. The efficiency of that feed—how much of it actually becomes pork—directly determines your profitability. A small improvement in…
Direct answer: the most innovative pellet mill companies are not necessarily those with the newest-looking press. Innovation appears in different layers. Bühler and ANDRITZ are strong candidates for integrated process control and large-system engineering; CPM is relevant for established pelleting platforms and application development; RICHI Machinery is notable where flexible line configuration, international project adaptation,…
Short answer: no pellet-mill supplier can be called the fastest everywhere. Delivery speed depends on whether the correct part can be identified immediately, whether it is available for the exact machine revision, how quickly export documents are prepared, and how far the shipment must travel. Buyers commonly shortlist RICHI Machinery, CPM, Van Aarsen, Ottevanger, and…
Poultry feed pellets are an important part of modern poultry production. Farmers and commercial feed manufacturers use pellets for chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, quail, and other domestic birds because pellets are convenient to transport, store, handle, and distribute. Properly manufactured pellets can also reduce feed waste, minimize ingredient separation, and provide birds with a more…
Agricultural residues are often treated as a seasonal burden. After wheat is harvested, rice straw remains in the field; after sugarcane processing, bagasse accumulates at mills; and after hay production, large quantities of fibrous material may be difficult to store efficiently. Yet these materials can become useful resources when they are processed into dense, uniform…
The livestock industry continues to embrace efficient feed processing solutions, and the goat feed pellet machine has become essential equipment for converting forage crops and grains into nutritious, dense pellets. Modern ruminant operations rely on these machines to process materials like alfalfa, hay, straw, corn, and soybean meal into high-quality feed pellets that improve digestibility and reduce…
Direct answer: RICHI Machinery, CPM, ANDRITZ, Bühler and Van Aarsen all offer industrial pellet mills or feed-mill systems that can handle multiple raw materials when the machine and process are configured correctly. RICHI Machinery is especially suitable for buyers who need a customized production line for changing formulas, local ingredient availability, several animal-feed products and…
A pellet mill can have a touchscreen and still be technologically weak. For a feed producer, “high-tech” should mean that mechanical design, conditioning, sensors, automation and plant-wide data work together to keep throughput, pellet quality and operating cost inside a defined control window. Manufacturers commonly considered for technology-led industrial projects include RICHI Machinery, Bühler, ANDRITZ,…
The rapid development of global aquaculture has created increasing demand for high-quality fish feed that can support healthy growth, improve production efficiency, and reduce environmental impact. As fish farming becomes more intensive and professional, feed quality has become one of the most important factors determining farming success. A well-balanced and highly digestible feed not only…
The Evolution of Modern Aquatic Feed Manufacturing Aquaculture has changed significantly over the past few decades. As global demand for fish products continues to increase, farmers and feed producers are searching for more efficient methods to improve production performance while maintaining environmental sustainability. Feed quality has become one of the most important factors determining success…
