Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to or limited by the embodiments. Like reference symbols in the drawings denote like elements.

Figure 1 shows a feed production system according to one embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 1, a feed manufacturing system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a finely softened portion 100, a blending portion 110, a fermentation portion 120, a pelletizing portion 130, a freeze drying portion 140, A first portion 150, and a second portion 160.

The cut-and-softened portion 100 may cut or soften the raw material supplied for producing the feed, that is, the roughage.

At this time, the forage is a basic feed for herbivorous livestock, and it can be used as feed for fullness, and can include rice straw, straw, pods, sweet potato, acacia leaves, leaves, cabbage leaves, seaweeds, silages and hay.

For example, in the case of Hanwoo, about 5cm is suitable for proper rumen function and shorter than 3cm for pigs.

Although not shown in FIG. 1, it is possible to preset the degree to which the roughage is softened or softened through a control unit (not shown). Concretely, the degree to which the forage or the roughage is softened can be controlled by controlling the time during which the roughage remains in the cut-and-softened portion.

Therefore, by the fine-grain softening unit 100, the roughage can be cut or softened to reduce the loss of feed, and the digestibility and feed efficiency of the feed can be improved.

The compounding portion 110 may be connected to the thinned softened portion 100.

The compounding unit 110 may mix the roughage cut or softened in the softened portion 100 with the compounded feed.

For example, 30% of the forage, 70% of the mixed feed, and 10% of water can be uniformly mixed in the mixing portion 110.

At this time, the compound feed is a mixture made to mix nutrients evenly for the purpose of raising livestock, in order to maintain the health of the livestock and fully demonstrate the production capacity of the livestock.

Specifically, a proper amount of protein is added to the cattle feed production to fully exercise the production of livestock, the calories to maintain the body temperature of the livestock and to maintain the production activity normally, the minerals such as calcium or phosphorus, and the vitamin .

In addition to the compounded feed, food byproducts, agricultural by-products or liquid feed may be added to the roughing or softening ration in the compounding portion 110.

In this way, by adding a compound feed, a food by-product, or agricultural by-products to the forage to produce a complete mixed feed (TMR feed), the cost for raw materials for producing the feed can be reduced, Improved immunity, sows productivity can be improved.

The blending part 110 may be connected to the fermentation part 120.

The fermentation unit 120 may ferment the mixed forage and the compounded feed.

Specifically, the mixed forage and compound feed are compressed by a baler, the forage and the compound feed compressed by a wrapper can be wrapped in vinyl.

For example, the mixed forage and compound feed can be press-formed into a cylindrically compressed lump by a bayiller, and the perimeter can be covered with a net to maintain its shape.

The perimeter of the compressed forage and the compounded feed net covered by the lapping machine can then be covered with vinyl and sealed.

Thereafter, it can be fermented while storing compressed lakes and compounded lumps enclosed in vinyl.

Fermentation is an anaerobic lactic acid fermentation by storage, and no separate energy cost is required in the fermentation process, so that a high quality fermentation complete mixed feed (fermented TMR feed) can be produced at low cost.

Furthermore, since the forage mixed with the bauller and the compounded feed are compressed, the transportation cost can be reduced, and it is possible to carry out the anaerobic fermentation with long-term storage by wrapping with plastic by the wrapping machine, .

The blending part 110 may be connected to a pelletizing part 130.

The pelletizing part 130 can mold the mixed forage and the mixed feed, that is, the complete mixed feed, into a pellet shape having a high density and a hard form.

In the pelletizing unit 130, the mixed forage and the compounded feed can be gradually compressed while being conveyed by a screw (not shown) to increase the density.

As shown in FIG. 1, the fermentation completely mixed feed produced in the fermentation unit 120 can be transferred to the pelletizing unit 130, as well as the mixed feed and the compound feed, that is, the complete mixed feed.

The cooling and drying unit 140 may be connected to the pelletizing unit 130.

The cooling and drying unit 140 may reduce the moisture content of the complete mixed feed or the completely fermented feed, and may, for example, dry the fermented mixed feed having a water content of 30 to 40% to about 20% .

In addition, the heat generated in the complete mixed feed or the completely fermented mixed feed can be cooled while being pelletized in the pelletizing part 130 through the cooling and drying part 140.

This is to prevent the quality of the feed from being deteriorated by rapidly cooling the feed because the completely mixed feed or the fermented completely mixed feed in the form of pellets is in a high temperature state.

In this manner, the mixture of the forage mixed with the mixture in the mixing unit 110, that is, the complete mixed feed, or the mixed feed for the fermentation in the fermentation unit 120, that is, the completely fermented mixed feed can be produced as a pellet feed.

The packaging unit 150 may be connected to the pelletizing unit 130 and the blending unit 110.

The packing unit 150 may pack the complete mixed feed produced in the mixing unit 110 or the pellet feed prepared in the pelletizing unit 130 in a small package, ton back, or bulk.

This type of packaging can be selected by the user by the control unit.

The feeding unit 160 may be connected to at least one of the blending unit 110, the fermentation unit 120, and the pelletizing unit 130.

Specifically, the completely mixed feed produced in the blending part 110 may be transported to the feeding part 160 after being packed by the packing part 150, and may be pelletized in the pelletizing part 130, The pellet feed manufactured through the feeder 140 is packed by the packing unit 150 and then transferred to the feed unit 160. The fermented fully mixed feed produced by the fermentation unit 120 is fed to the feed unit 160 Lt; / RTI >

Alternatively, the fermented completely mixed feed produced by the fermentation unit 120 may be pelletized in the pelletizing unit 130, be pelletized through the cooling and drying unit 140, and then be packaged by the packing unit 150 And can be transferred to the post-feeding unit 160.

The fermented fully mixed feed, pellet feed or complete mixed feed in the feed unit 160 may be transported, circulated or fed.

In the case of a completely fermented mixed feed, it can be carried or circulated in the state because it is wrapped in plastic by a wrapper for fermentation. In the case of a pellet feed or a completely mixed feed, Can be distributed.

When the feed is fed to the livestock in the feed unit 160, the feed can be classified as sows or breeding or finishing pigs, and the feed unit 160 can be classified into, for example, stall feeding, Or may include liquid feed or the like.

A conveyor is provided between the softened part 100, the blending part 110, the fermentation part 120, the pelletizing part 130, the freeze-drying part 140, the packing part 150 and the feeding part 160 .

The forage and the compound feed can be transported by the conveyor.

At this time, the operation of the conveyor can be controlled by the control unit, and for example, the operating speed of the conveyor, the operating direction of the conveyor, and the like can be adjusted.

As described above, the feed manufacturing system 10 according to an embodiment may further include a control unit, and not only can each component be controlled through the control unit, but also each component The processing time or running time in the element is controlled and can be controlled differently depending on the mode of use of the feed production system, the breeding of the livestock, or the type of feed.

For example, the mode of use of the feed manufacturing system can be classified as factory, co-farmer, or single farmhouse, and breeding of livestock can be classified as sow, finishing, sow + finishing, Mixed feed, pellet feed, and complete mixed feed.

With this arrangement, the feed manufacturing system 10 according to one embodiment can produce at least one of a fermented complete mixed feed, a pellet feed, or a completely mixed feed at the user's option.

For example, when fermented complete mixed feed, pellet feed or complete mixed feed is produced together, 25% of the total fermented mixed feed, 25% of the total pellet feed, and 50% of the total mixed feed are produced .

In addition, the feed manufacturing system 10 according to one embodiment can be efficiently operated by an automated system.

Hereinafter, a method of producing a feed using the feed manufacturing system 10 according to the embodiment described above will be described.

Figure 2 shows a method of making a feed according to one embodiment.

Referring to Fig. 2, a fermented fully mixed feed in the form of the above-mentioned feed can be produced as a pellet feed as follows.

First, the forage is cut or softened (S10).

The forage can be pulverized into small lengths, or softened to become soft.

The crushed or softened forage is mixed with the compounded feed (S20).

At this time, the forage can be further mixed with food byproducts, agricultural by-products or liquid feed as well as compounded feeds.

Whereby a complete mixed feed can be produced.

Thereafter, the mixed forage and the compound feed are compressed (S30).

At this time, the mixed feed and the mixed feed mixed by the baler can be compressed.

The compressed forage and the compound feed are wrapped with vinyl (S40).

For example, this step can be carried out by a lapping machine, the compressed forage and compound feed can be wrapped by vinyl, easy to transport, and sealed and easy to store.

Thereafter, the vat-wrapped roughage and the compounded feed are fermented (S50).

The fermentation is an anaerobic lactic acid fermentation, and fermentation progresses by long-term storage in an oxygen-free state, so that no additional energy cost may be required.

Thus, the mixed forage and the mixed feed can be completely fermented mixed feed.

The fermented fully mixed feed is then pelletized (S60).

For example, a fermented fully mixed feed can be formed into a rigid pellet shape with a high density.

The pellet-shaped fermented completely mixed feed is cooled and dried (S70).

This is to rapidly cool the fermented complete mixed feed which has become hot during the pellet molding, and to reduce the moisture content in the fermented complete mixed feed to prevent the feed quality from deteriorating.

Whereby a pellet feed is produced.

The thus-prepared pellet feed is packaged (S80).

At this time, the pellet-shaped fermented complete mixed feed can be packaged in the form of a small bag of about a ton bag or about 25 kg.

Finally, packaged pellet feed is fed (S90).

In this case, the feed may include the process of feeding the livestock directly to the livestock, as well as the distribution or transport process.

According to the feed production system (10) and the method according to the embodiment described above, the cost of the feed materials can be reduced by feeding the food byproducts or the agricultural by-products together with the forage to feed the livestock, Feed can be produced.

In addition, by feeding the fermented complete mixed feed to the livestock, the constipation can be solved, the odor of the manure can be reduced, the stress can be reduced, and the quality and productivity of the livestock can be improved.

In addition, since anaerobic fermentation by storing after sealing can be performed through wrapping, no separate energy cost is required, packaging cost and distribution cost can be reduced, and a cheap and high quality complete mixed feed can be produced.

Finally, pelleting the feed can improve the utilization of agricultural byproducts, prevent feed loss, improve feed efficiency, and improve the competitiveness of livestock farmers.

Figures 3 (a) and 3 (b) illustrate the feed costs according to the number of reared cattle according to one embodiment of the feed production system and method.

Referring to FIG. 3 (a), it can be seen that the fermented complete mixed feed using domestic silage at the factory is eventually reduced in feed cost than the conventional feed.

Specifically, in case of mixed fermented mixed feeds using domestic silage, 14000 can reduce the feed cost of conventional mixed feeds by the same amount as that of conventional mixed feeds.

Also, in the case of pellet feeds, the feed cost of the 28,000 batches is equal to that of the conventional feeds, which may be lower than the feed cost of conventional feeds in the number of breeding stocks.

Referring to FIG. 3 (b), it can be seen that the fermented complete mixed feed using domestic silage for the common farmhouse eventually has a lower feed cost than the conventional mixed feed.

Concretely, in case of mixed fermented mixed feeds using domestic silage, the feed cost of the conventional mixed feeds becomes equal to that of the conventional mixed feeds.

In the case of pellet feed, the feed cost of the mixed feed is equal to that of the mixed feed at the higher feed ratios.

Thus, through the feed production system and method according to one embodiment, the feed can be produced economically.
