Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

The present invention relates to a feed for ruminants, and more particularly to a feed for ruminants that is highly nutritious and does not cause diseases such as bloat in ruminants. Traditionally, feed for ruminant animals such as cattle is a mixture of concentrated feed rich in nutrients and mixed with roughage before feeding, but the process of mixing roughage is complicated and the formulation of concentrated feed is difficult. There are problems such as fluctuations in nutritional components, and in addition, there are also problems with palatability for ruminants and health problems.
In particular, if the amount of roughage mixed with the concentrate feed mixture and fed is insufficient, diseases such as bloat may occur due to the lack of crude fiber content in the fed feed. Further, Japanese Patent Publication No. 14189/1989 describes a cattle feed prepared by alphaning and pressing corn, and mixing this with soybean meal, hay cubes, and molasses. However, since these feed ingredients are simply mixed together, they do not satisfy the animal's palatability, and there is a concern that the feed ingredients may be unevenly ingested or left uneaten. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and it does not require mixing roughage during feeding, and there is no fear of health problems caused by a lack of crude fiber content. The aim is to provide a complete feed for ruminants that is highly nutritious and uniformly ingested without being selective. The present invention will be explained in detail below. The present invention is a concentrated feed blended with grains whose starch components have been alpha-ized and pressed, vegetable oil cakes and saccharides with nutrients such as vitamins and minerals formed into pellets having a diameter of 3 mm to 15 mm. It is characterized by comprising 90 parts by weight to 40 parts by weight of sulfur and 10 parts by weight to 60 parts by weight of roughage, and food processing waste liquid is uniformly sprinkled on the mixed feed. The compressed grains constituting the concentrate used in the present invention are grains conventionally used as ingredients for concentrates, such as corn, barley, wheat, and milo, which are heated wet or dry and then pressed with a roll. obtained by making it into flakes,
The starch component is alpha-ized. The degree of alphaning is preferably 30 to 60%. In addition, pellet moldings, which are other elements constituting concentrate feed, are made from vegetable oil cakes such as soybean oil cake and rapeseed oil cake, sucrose such as wheat bran, defatted rice bran, etc., which are conventionally used as materials for concentrate feed. Or, it is obtained by adding nutrients such as vitamins and minerals to a mixture of two or more of them, making it into a powder form, and molding it into pellets according to a conventional method, and which is ingested by ruminants. The pellets are formed into pellets with a diameter of 3 mm to 15 mm for ease of use and for uniform mixing with roughage.
In addition, feed additives other than those mentioned above may be added during this molding. The blending ratio of the compressed grain and the pellet molded product in the concentrate feed used in the present invention is 85:15.
~25:75 (by weight) is preferred. The ruminant feed according to the present invention is obtained by blending the concentrated feed obtained as described above with roughage, and uniformly spraying food processing waste liquid such as blackstrap molasses on this mixed feed. Here, concentrate feed and roughage are mixed in a weight ratio of 90:10 to 40:60. In this formulation, if the ratio of roughage to concentrate feed is lower than the above range, the crude fiber content in the feed will be insufficient, which will harm the health of the ruminant.
On the other hand, if it is too high, the nutritional value will decrease and it will no longer serve the purpose as a complete feed. Note that the roughage mentioned here includes those conventionally used as roughage such as hay cubes, cottonseed husks, and rice straw, and the fiber content of these materials has been crushed or crushed in advance using a hammer mill, cutter, etc. Cut and apply. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-94253 discloses a compound feed in which corn flakes, pellets made of a mixture of soybean meal, etc., and molasses, and roughage are sequentially taken out of a compounding tank in desired amounts, cumulatively weighed, and mixed in a compounding machine. Are listed. However, in the present invention, as described above, the food processing waste liquid material is uniformly sprinkled on the mixture of the concentrate feed and roughage, so that the two feeds are adsorbed to each other, integrated, and separated. Therefore, when feeding animals, it is important to collect only one type of feed, or
There is no need to worry about leaving anything behind. Further, even if powdery substances are generated in the feed, they are absorbed throughout the feed, thereby preventing them from scattering. As the food processing waste liquid in the present invention, blackstrap molasses, alcohol distillation waste liquid, corn steep liquor, corn distiller's soluble, barley distiller's soluble, etc. are used. The blending ratio of this food processing waste liquid is preferably within 5% of the total feed. but,
If the blending ratio is too low, the feeds will not be adsorbed to each other, and if it is too high, the feed will become sticky, so care must be taken.From this point of view, the blending ratio of food processing waste liquid should be adjusted within the range of 2 to 5% of the total feed. do. Additionally, in general, when various additives such as propionate as a preservative and sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate as a buffer are added for the purpose of enhancing the preservative effect of feed or maintaining a good physiological state of the animal, The feed of the present invention has the advantage of being able to eliminate the problem of palatability caused by the addition of the above-mentioned additives, although this may impair the animal's taste. As mentioned above, the feed according to the present invention has high nutritional value and maintains a nutritional balance, and in addition, since the feed can be uniformly ingested by ruminants when fed, there is no problem with the animal's health. This makes it possible to raise animals in good condition without causing any problems. As described above, in the present invention, grains are alpha-ized and pressed, vegetable oil meal, bran, nutrients such as vitamins and minerals are formed into pellets of a certain shape, and these are blended to form a concentrated feed. This is mixed with a certain amount of roughage, and food processing waste liquid is evenly sprinkled on this mixed feed to make the feed mutually adsorbed, so it matches the animal's preference, has a high intake, and is not evenly distributed. There is no concern that food will be eaten or left uneaten, and it is possible to prevent the occurrence of bloat in domestic animals and significantly increase their body weight. EXAMPLES The effects of the present invention will be specifically explained below with reference to Examples. Example 1 Preparation of Concentrated Feed Corn is steamed to alpha the starch component, which is then pressed with a roll into flakes and dried. On the other hand, 1 part by weight of vitamins and minerals, 1 part by weight of calcium salt, and 1 part by weight of common salt are added to a mixture of 5 parts by weight of soybean meal and 5 parts by weight of wheat bran, and then pulverized, and an appropriate amount of steam is added to the resulting pulverized product. It is sprayed and formed into pellets with an average diameter of about 10 mm. Next, 13 parts by weight of this pellet molded product is blended with 54 parts by weight of the compressed flaked corn to obtain a concentrate feed. Preparation of feed for ruminants Next, 30 parts by weight of heikyube as forage was blended with 67 parts by weight of the concentrate prepared as described above, and 3 parts by weight of blackstrap molasses was evenly sprinkled on this mixture to prepare the product. do. Feeding Effects Twenty Holstein steers were fed and reared with the feed according to the present invention obtained as described above (invention group) and the conventional pelletized concentrate feed (comparison group) for comparison. The results are shown in the table below. The composition of the conventional pelletized concentrate feed used for comparison is as follows, and 10% by weight of rice straw was mixed with the feed as roughage for feeding.

[Table] As seen from the table, the weight gain of the cattle fed the feed according to the present invention was superior to that of the comparative example, and the occurrence of bloat was extremely low. Example 2 The feed according to the present invention shown in Example 1 and the control 1 and control 2 feeds having the following mixing ratios were provided to 10 Holstein steers each. For control group 1, raw materials other than corn flakes and alpha alpha heikyuve were mixed and processed into pellets, and then corn flakes and alpha alpha heikyuve were mixed therein. For control group 2, all feed ingredients were mixed in the same form. mixed with. Feed composition ratio (parts by weight) Corn flakes 54 Alpha Alfa Heikyub 30 Soybean meal 5 Bran 5 Salt 1 Calcium carbonate 1 Vitamins and minerals 1 Blackstrap molasses 3 Total 100 Each feed was allowed to be taken ad libitum for 180 days, and body weight and feed were determined. The amount of intake and the occurrence of diseases were investigated. In addition, once a month, the remaining feed in the feed tank was divided into corn flakes, alpha alpha corn flakes, and others, and the ratio was determined and compared with the mixing ratio before feeding. The test results are shown in the table below.

[Table] Looking at the growth results and disease occurrence, the inventive plots had a higher feed intake and better weight gain than the control plots 1 and 2. Further, no occurrence of bloating was observed. That is, it was found that the feed of the present invention has good palatability and is effective in maintaining the health of cattle. In addition, when looking at the categories of leftover food, the ratio of alpha alpha aheikyubu was extremely high in the control group 1 compared to before feeding, indicating that the feed was not evenly consumed. In addition, in the control group 2, there was an extremely large amount of other matsushi parts remaining, and the nutritional components at the time of blending were not evenly ingested. In comparison, in the inventive plot, the ratio of remaining feed was almost the same as before feeding, indicating that the animals were not selectively eating the feed, which is the purpose of the inventive feed, and were evenly ingesting nutritional components.
