YOUNG ANIMALS FEEDING

TEKMASH® technology for the production of soy milk or peas milk allows to substitute 5080% of expensive whole cow milk, absolutely safe for calves. It is also recommended to include 1/4 of a gallon (1 ltr.) of vegetable milk in young pigs ration. The feeding schemes are approved by animal husbandry specialists, including scientists from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of Ukraine.

In Table 1 you will see a side-by-side comparison of the characteristics of whole milk, whey, as well as soy paste and dispersion soy milk prepared from this paste under TEKMASH® technology:

The suggested layout implies equal substitution of whey (whole milk) with soy milk or whole milk substitute (WMS).

Inclusion of soy products in calves ration allows to raise the productivity, reduce the fodders cost and, consequently, to boost economic indices of raising young cattle.

Calves need to be watched in order to prevent stomach and digestion disorders. Under any feeding technology, the amount of soy in fodders dry matter content should not exceed 20%.

Table 2 provides a comparative assessment of nutritive value of various fodders, both conventional ones and those produced in TEK-SM machine. The specified fodder additives may be used taking into account the existing fodder resources in various climatic zones of Ukraine.

The nutrients concentration norms in 1 kg of dry matter are specified for calves (A.P. Kalashnikov, 1985).

The content of regenerated milk and whey is calculated based on average value.

The content of soy and peas milk is based on the nutritive value data of respective crop.

Kalvolac is a whole milk substitute produced by Nutrifeed (the Netherlands)

Soy and peas grain mix is approximated to WMS and is prepared on the basis of respective grain and vitamins-mineral concentrate. The content of the latter varies depending on the nutritive value of the ration.

Details on TEK-SM equipment selection depending on the number of cattle stock are provided in Table 3

*)- Based on 8-hour work day, taking into account the time needed for machine steaming (disinfection), it is advisable to finish 5-6 operation cycles.

As it becomes clear from Table 3, the recommended number of young pig sucklings is approximately 5 times higher than the recommended number of young cattle. This has to do with the fact that a calf gets 1.32-1.59 gallons (5-6 ltrs.) of soy milk per day, whereas a young pig gets only about 0.26 gallon (1 ltr.).

As we know, a peculiar feature of cattle farming in Canada is an early calf weaning from a cow and early switch to starter feeds. Starter feed must be fresh and palatable. It should be prepared from farm-grown crops with the addition of 2025% of soy, minerals and vitamins.
TEKMASH® equipment is a perfect fit for the production of such fodder mixes consisting of crops and legumes (soy-wheat-corn; peas-corn-oats, etc.).

Recommendations for young pigs feeding are provided in Table 4. Analysis of feedback received from a number of farms gives us grounds for the following statements:

  • daily gains of sucklings increase, on the average, by 0.11-0.16 lb (50-70 g);
  • daily gains of weanling piglets increase, on the average, by 0.22 lb (100 g).

Moreover, if we take into consideration that the purchasing price per 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of pig live weight is about U$ 1.48-1.85, then the average daily profits from the introduction of this technology (0.22 lb or 100 g of additional daily gain) equals to U$ 0.11-0.15. The net cost of 1 ltr. of soy milk produced from soy grown locally, in the farm, does not exceed 2 cents (or 7 cents per gallon).

Thus, the daily profit on just one pig weanling is 913 cents (all calculations are based on Ukrainian market prices).

If a farm has 5,000 pigs herd, the daily savings on liquid fodders amounts to about U$ 556.
The price of TEK-4SM machine recommended for young pigs herd of this size (5,000) is U$ 9,630, therefore, the equipment pay-back period can be calculated with this formula: 9,630/556 = 18 days.

The introduction experience showed that the pay-back period of TEKMASH® equipment in real farming conditions does not exceed 23 months.

As seen from Table 6, the profit margin of a pig farm rises approximately by 25% owing to introduction of the new technology.

It is obvious that after the return of invested funds, the farm will receive U$ 16,667 of additional monthly profits.

*CMS soy (peas) based cow milk substitute with additions of vegetable fats, a pre-mix of vitamins and minerals and a bioactive substances complex. The ingredient content is adjusted depending on the overall nutritive value of the ration.

The core of the Traditional feeding program for pig sucklings was taken from recommendations provided in the reference material The Standards and Rations of Agricultural Animals Feeding (A.P. Kalashnikov, N.I. Kleymenov, 1985).

The suggested layout implies equal substitution of whey (whole milk) with soy milk - cow milk substitute (CMS).

Overall nutritive value of the ration needs to be adjusted with the ingredients content of used feed mix.
