Identify the average daily energy requirements for either a cow, broiler chicken, horse, or dog over a defined period of its life.
Identify the average daily energy requirements for either a cow, broiler chicken, horse, or dog over a defined period of its life. Use either metabolizable energy (ME) or digestible energy (DE) as appropriate for the species chosen.
Briefly describe in a table five feedstuffs that can be considered for your animal of choice together with their expected contents of either DE or ME, as appropriate for the species chosen.
Using two of the feedstuffs you identified under (2), work out a ration that meets the energy requirements you identified under (1), and show how you have achieved this without the aid of a feed formulation program.
Review your ratio and consider what other factors need to be considered for your proposed solution to be viable.
