摘要:
A system for delivering microingredient feed additives into a feed ration includes a storage hopper with a mixer element attached to an agitator shaft that is configured to agitate a high-moisture feed ingredient in the hopper when the agitator shaft is rotated. A micromachine includes storage containers for storing low-inclusion ingredients, and meters and dispenses precise amounts of selected low-inclusion ingredients without using a fluid carrier. A mixing conveyor receives and mixes the high-moisture feed ingredient and the selected low-inclusion ingredients. The mixing conveyor includes a discharge screw with a rotatable shaft and flighting attached to the shaft, wherein a portion of the flighting positioned below the storage hopper pull the high-moisture feed ingredient from the storage hopper and convey it to a mixing section that receives the selected low-inclusion ingredients dispensed from the micromachine without using a fluid carrier and mixes the low-inclusion ingredients with the feed ingredient.

A system and method for handling and transporting moist bulk grain by-products include a rail car having an aluminum car body carried by a plurality of trucks for engaging rails. A flexible top cover, supported by a plurality of breakaway curved ribs, is positioned over an open top of the rail car to protect the moist bulk grain by-products carried therein. The car body has a front end and a rear end each having a wind screen for spoiling or deflecting the flow of air over the car as it moves to prevent the flexible top cover from being lost or damaged. The car may be emptied by a car inverter over a conveyor, such as a reciprocating floor which carries the moist grain by-products to a mixer, or transportation vehicles for distribution to customers or users of the grain by-products.

Systems and methods for animal management are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for managing an animal includes administering an animal feed ration to a plurality of animals, the animal feed ration comprising ingredients and a taggant. The method also includes visually observing the presence or absence of the taggant adhered to the snout of at least one of the plurality of animals. The method also includes determining if the animal has consumed the animal feed ration.

The current invention relates to a process for preparing maltitol enriched products and said process is chromatographically fractionating a maltose syrup followed by hydrogenating it into a liquid maltitol enriched product and optionally solidification or crystallization of maltitol. Liquid, solid and crystalline maltitol of different purities are obtainable by a single process.
摘要:
The present disclosure describes methods that maintain the substantially uniform distribution of low-inclusion ingredients in an animal feed ration. Such methods include combining a non-liquid admixture that includes the low-inclusion ingredients and a non-liquid carrier with a base animal feed to make an animal feed ration.
