Good quality pellets have several benefits: reduced waste, less segregation in the feed, improved palatability and shorter eating periods. Also animal performance and feed efficiency can benefit from pelleting the feed. Pelleting research in the sixties, which compared the feeding efficiency of mash, pellets, and reground pellets, found that with broilers growth response was lost when pellets were reground. Metabolisable energy was not affected by pelleting, but the diet fed as intact pellets had approximately 30% more calories of productive energy. It was speculated that this was the effect of less energy needed to eat pellets compared to mash. In a time trial, chicks fed mash spent about 103 minutes of a 12-hour day eating versus only 34 minutes with pellet-fed chicks. Also feed conversion (gain/feed) benefits from good pellet quality. Research and practical findings on commercial farms often indicated that on farms with good quality pellets, feed conversions were always better than when the feed was fed as mash or had a high percentage of fines. Kafum agri machinery has been on the frontline I research, design and development of high quality animal and poultry feed pelleting machines. Our machichine have high output per hour yet very energy efficient and can be used in feed processing factories and private farms.
