These feeds cannot be fed directly to livestock and poultry, farmers should pay attention

If you are a farmer, and your farm does not feed complete formula feed, then some of the ingredients you normally feed to your livestock and poultry may not be suitable for direct feeding. Whether you raise pigs, cattle or sheep, or raise chickens, ducks or geese, you need to pay attention to this point. Today, the editor will introduce to you which feeds cannot be fed directly to livestock and poultry during the breeding process.

One of the feeds that cannot be fed directly to livestock and poultry: raw soybean meal

Raw soybean meal is a very common feed and is almost an essential feeding product in the breeding process. However, raw soybean meal has a poor taste, so for livestock and poultry such as pigs and chickens, its palatability is relatively poor. In addition, raw soybean meal contains a certain amount of anti-nutritional factors. If it is used directly to feed livestock and poultry, it will affect the absorption of protein and other substances by the livestock and poultry, thereby causing symptoms such as diarrhea and slowing down the speed of growth and development. Therefore, farmers need to cook raw soybean meal for about 30 minutes. For example, they can consider steaming it in a steamer for half an hour, which can destroy the trypsin inhibitor in raw soybean meal, and then it can be fed to livestock and poultry.

The second feed that cannot be fed directly to livestock and poultry:Raw okara

Raw okara is very rich in nutrients. In fact, even for people to eat, it is very good. In particular, the protein contained in raw okara is very good for both people and livestock and poultry. Many farmers, especially those who raise pigs, like to use raw okara to feed pigs. However, raw okara lacks vitamins, and it is very easy to spoil. Also, like the above two things, it contains harmful substances such as trypsin inhibitor, so it still needs to be heated before feeding. In addition, the feeding amount cannot be too large. After all, it has few vitamins, and if livestock and poultry eat it every day, they will lack vitamins.

The third feed that cannot be fed directly to livestock and poultry: beans

This is the same as the raw soybean meal mentioned above. It is also because the harmful substances such as trypsin inhibitor contained in it can easily cause diarrhea in livestock and poultry and slow down production speed. Therefore, before feeding beans to livestock and poultry, it is best to cook them thoroughly first.
