---------------------
My impression: crude protein can be lowered to 18-19%, and digestible energy can be raised by another 100 kcal.
---------------------
Personal opinion:

Protein can still be lowered by 1-2 percentage points, and energy still needs to be raised a bit;

Sulfur-containing amino acids are insufficient, methionine needs to be added;

There is a bit too much acidifier, and the cost is not worthwhile;
---------------------
You must be really rich! Still using white fish meal, you definitely are not the boss!
---------------------
The overall approach is not bad, but the details may need to be described more clearly to be meaningful; first, soybean oil should preferably be described as refined oil or salad oil; second, the calcium and phosphorus contents used are relatively high, especially the high limestone powder addition, which easily binds stomach acid and reduces digestive capacity; third, the citric acid addition is relatively small, and generally can only be used as an energy source, which can improve palatability, but is not suitable as an acidifier.

It is a mid-to-low-end product.

That's all for now.

Thank you everyone, thank you very much

Learning...
---------------------
The acidifier content feels fine, creep feed is meant to adapt to the intestinal environment, I feel the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio is a bit off

---------------------
Everyone shares their views, I am learning here.
---------------------
Calcium and phosphorus are indeed a bit high!!!
---------------------
The citric acid dosage is a bit low, and the cost is a bit high.
