International Classification:
A01K 110
US Classification:
119 5101, 426807, 426 53, 340500, 340540, 3405733, 119174, 119421, 700 90
Abstract:
A system for and method of determining a formulation for an animal feed having a customized heat increment value. The system can include an animal profile, an animal nutrient requirement profile, an evaluation criteria, and/or ingredient nutrient content profiles. The information contained in the profiles and criteria can be used to calculate a formulation having a desirable heat increment value. The heat increment value can be used to maximize satisfaction of an evaluation criteria.
System For Animal Feed Market Analysis
US Patent:
2003019, Oct 16, 2003
Filed:

Assignee:
Cargill, Inc.
International Classification:
G06F017/60
US Classification:
705/001000
Abstract:
A valuation system for determining the impact of a modification in the nutrient composition of an ingredient or the impact of a new ingredient on the value of the ingredient and the value of competing ingredients. The system can include a repository of information related to potential markets that is incorporated in the evaluation to provide a valuation. This system allows analysis of multiple formulations of animal feed utilizing the new or modified ingredient in a designated market to determine projected usage and value.
Animal Feed Compositions
US Patent:

International Classification:
A23L 1/20
US Classification:
426630000
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a certain isoflavone-enhanced domestic animal feed compositions and methods of producing such feed compositions. In one particular implementation, a feed composition includes a soy meal that is no more than about 20 weight percent of the feed composition. This soy meal has a soy isoflavone content that provides the feed composition with a soy isoflavone concentration, normalized to an aglycone content of about 250-1400 parts per million on a weight basis (ppm), e.g., about 800-1200 ppm. Feed compositions in certain adaptations have demonstrated some advantages over feeds with lower isoflavone content.
