  • a higher AAT value and a lower PBV value can be obtained either by increasing the proportion of digestible carbohydrates or by increasing the proportion of undegraded feed protein.
  • An increased proportion of digestible carbohydrates by the gelatinisation of starch is possible.
  • Gelatinised starch will, however, give rise to consequences detrimental to the state and function of the rumen in cattle in high lactation. Gelatinisation is, moreover, an expensive solution in terms of the techniques used and the work required. In sacco is the best method we have today for examining the degradability of food in the rumen. This method is based on a standard procedure (Vik-Mo 1988). The principle of the method is to determine how great a proportion of the feed disappears from nylon bags that remain in the rumen for different periods of time.

  • a high feed intake and a high proportion of concentrate will increase the rate of passage, whilst low digestibility will reduce it.
  • the degradation rate may be related to a number of significant sources of error. Firstly, the degradation rate in a feed mixture will be an average value for several feedstuffs. A second important point is that not all the protein which leaves the nylon bag need necessarily be degradable in the rumen.
  • An expander is used during the processing of the grain.
  • the expander is in principle constructed like a simple extruder, and the feed is pressed past a hydraulically adjustable resistor.
  • the hydraulically adjustable resistor allows for a relatively good control of the actual steps involved in the processing.

  • the temperature in the feed can rise to 150-190°C.

  • the figure also shows that the intense processing lasts for a very short period of time. After passing the resistor the pressure falls instantly.

  • the expander kills the germination capacity of the grain and has an effect on the degradability of the protein and dry matter in feed for ruminants. This is of great practical, competitive and financial consequence for the production and use of concentrates.
  • the expander can be used inter alia for the production of feed for ruminants, poultry, pigs and fish.
  • An expander placed in the production line prior to the pellet press will produce better pellets and increase the capacity of the pellet press considerably (approx. 20-40%). Energy consumption during pelleting will normally decrease somewhat.
  • the heat treatment will kill a number of bacteria such as, for example, Salmonella, and thus improve the hygienic quality of the feed. Reduction in the activity of the natural inhibitors in the feed, such as glucosinolates, will probably also take place.

During mild processing an attempt was made to keep the temperature at approx. 130°C. It can be seen that this temperature was reached at different pressures.

  • AAT in milk production is approx. 90 grams AAT per FEm (85 grams AAT per kilo at 94 FEm per 100 kg) when the cow is fed with energy according to the norm. It is therefore natural that in the production of mixed feeds for dairy cattle one aims to meet this need "Covfeed”, low PBV and "Cowfeed”, high PBV). Varying PBV values in the concentrates will make it possible to utilize the protein in the total ration in the best way possible. In cases of high yield and low energy relative to the norm, the need for AAT per FEm increases. Ideally this must be topped up with a protein concentrate. In everyday feeding there are relatively strong desires to be able to use just one concentrate mixture. This mixture should cater as much as possible to the high yield cows in the herd. What AAT level this mixture should have is difficult to determine now, but from 95 to 105 grams AAT per FEm covers the range of variation.
