**How to Reduce the Cost of Animal Feed**
Using raw materials for feed fermentation is a convenient and cost-effective approach. Making your own pig feed with a starter culture can significantly cut down on feeding costs, which is why many farmers have started adopting this method. However, the results vary depending on the production technique used, and the key factor behind these differences is often the quality of the starter used.
In fact, high-quality feed fermentation starters are essential for successful fermentation. Among the best options available is **Jinbao Feed Fermentation Starter**, a second-generation microbial starter specifically designed for feed fermentation. This compound microbial agent is made using advanced technology, combining multiple high-quality bacterial strains that have been purified, rejuvenated, and screened for optimal performance. It contains beneficial bacteria such as *Bacillus*, *Lactobacillus*, *Yeast*, and filamentous fungi, making it suitable for fermenting a wide range of feed ingredients.
**Applications**: Jinbao starter is ideal for fermenting energy feeds, roughage, grains, and other plant or animal by-products.
**How to Make Pig Feed Using Jinbao Starter**
1. **Materials and Proportions**
Choose ingredients based on local availability. Adjust proportions according to what you have. Here are some common combinations:
- (1) 70% fresh chicken manure, 15% corn flour, 10% wheat bran, 5% rice bran. Chicken manure should be mold-free; pigeon or duck droppings can also be used as substitutes.
- (2) 20% corn flour, 30% wheat bran, 10% rice bran, and 40% vegetable (cotton) seed meal.
- (3) 30% wheat bran, 30% rice bran, and 40% bran water (also known as muddy water).
2. **Production Method**
Mix the selected ingredients in the correct proportions. Add 0.2% of the Jinbao starter (such as the Golden Baby II type) and mix thoroughly with water until the moisture content reaches about 65%. A simple way to check is to squeeze the mixture in your hand — it should form a clump but not drip. If it's too wet, it won't ferment properly.
Once mixed, place the material in a sealed plastic bag or container and let it ferment for about 3 days. In winter, it may take a bit longer, while in summer, it can be done in just 1-2 days. The fermentation is complete when the mixture turns yellowish-green, has no strong odor, and smells slightly sour. At this point, it’s ready to use as feed.
