Animal Feeds Companies in Nigeria

Just like human well-being depends on food (balanced diet), animal well-being is highly dependent on feed that reflects well-balanced nutrition. Animal feeds are food grown or developed for livestock and poultry. Animals, in general, require the same nutrients as humans.

 

Some feeds, such as pasture grasses, hay and silage crops, and certain cereal grains, are grown specifically for animals. The basic nutrients that animals require for maintenance, growth, reproduction, and good health include carbohydrates, protein, fat, minerals, vitamins, and water.

 

With a large variety of livestock, there must also be a large variety of feed to accommodate their individual needs. There are three major types of feed used by farmers, each with its uses and benefits.

 

  • Feedstuffs

One of the most common feeds used by commercial farmers is Feedstuffs. Also known as compound feeds, they are blends of various additives and raw materials formulated to suit the intended animal specifically. They are often produced as crumbles. Like modern vitamins with humans, they can be used to either satisfy the complete nutritional requirements of their target animals or as a supplement to other staples of the animals’ diets. They are often complemented with extra vitamins and minerals.

  • Fodder

Fodder, another type of animal feed, is used primarily to feed domesticated livestock such as goats, sheep, cattle, horses, and pigs. Fodder refers particularly to foods or forages given to the animals (including plants cut and carried to them), rather than what they look for themselves. It is typically composed of plant matter like hay, straw, and grains. The term is used to describe plants given to the animals after harvest, which contrasts with forage, as will be explained below.

  • Forage

Forage is plant matter grown in a confined area to graze upon by various livestock. It can be composed of legumes, grasses, corn, oats, alfalfa, and other edible plants. Eating or grazing upon the plant matter is known as foraging. Historically, forage means plants eaten by the animals directly as pasture, crop residue, or immature cereal crops.
