How to reasonably prepare goose feed for raising geese

The principle of formulating goose feed formula is to select the appropriate feeding standard according to the breed, development stage and production purpose of geese, which not only meets the physiological needs of geese but also does not cause nutritional waste; based on local resources, reduce the cost as much as possible on the premise of ensuring nutritional composition, so that breeders get greater economic benefits; choose raw materials with good palatability and a certain volume to ensure that geese eat enough nutrition every time. Collocation of a variety of raw materials to play a complementary role in nutrition; control the amount of some feed materials, such as legume hay powder, which is rich in protein, can be 15%-30% in the diet, and the digestibility of feather meal and blood meal is low, the addition amount should be less than 5%; the quality of the selected raw materials should be good, there is no mildew and deterioration, and there is no pesticide pollution.

The general amount of raw materials for the preparation of goose feed is as follows: seed and its processing by-products account for 30%-70%, tuber (stem) and its processing by-products (dry weight) account for 15%-30%, animal protein feed accounts for 5%-10%, plant protein feed accounts for 5%-20%, green fodder and grass meal account for 10%-30%, calcium powder and salt are added as appropriate, and some additives are used according to specific needs.

When choosing a reasonable form of feed mixing, all kinds of raw materials are processed into dry powder, then stirred evenly, pressed into particles and fed. This form not only saves labor and labor, but also prevents geese from being picky about food. When the powder is mixed, that is, the grain part of the diet is still granular and mixed together, it is fed several times a day, and the mixed powder containing animal protein, calcium powder, salt and additives is supplemented. When the concentrate is mixed, the concentrate is processed into powder and mixed with chopped grass, green vegetables or succulent rhizomes. Calcium powder and additives are generally mixed in the powder, and the sand can be placed in another container. Note that when feeding geese with the latter two mixed forms of feed, it is easy to cause excessive or insufficient intake of some nutrients.
