Compound feed PK-6 for turkeys: composition and advantages, consumption and feeding rates

Turkeys are grown for meat that has a pronounced distinctive taste and less fat than the carcasses of other birds. In order to fatten the bird in a short time, it is required to draw up a balanced and high-calorie diet for it. Especially for the final stage of feeding turkeys, PK-6 compound feed was developed, thanks to the use of which it is possible to quickly bring the live weight of pets to 16-17 kg.

Advantages and disadvantages of compound feed PK-6

In a private household, there is often enough food to keep a bird full. But for some reason, such indicators in terms of the speed and volume of weight gain, as those of farmers involved in the mass production of turkeys, are not observed.Giving the birds what is currently ripe in the garden and in the garden, adding random food leftovers there, it is almost impossible to calculate whether the pets are getting enough fats, proteins, trace elements, vitamins and carbohydrates.

The convenience of using ready-made mixtures lies in the fact that they are designed for specific animals and birds and for their specific age.

Main Benefits of PK-6 Pairing for Turkeys:

• complete set of ingredients for vital cost recovery and effective weight gain;
• High-calorie formula, including ingredients that are usually not produced in the same farm;
• feeding scheme provided by feed developers;
• shelf life in a cool dry ventilated area - 3 months;
• 90% absorbed by the bird's body;
• saves time preparing formula.

Disadvantage - the price of the combined feed is higher than the grains, proteins and vitamins bought separately. However, at home, it is impossible to make a composition that accurately reflects the age requirements of turkeys for microscopic nutrients.

Feed composition

The most complex ingredient included in a compound feed is the premix, a mixture of elements used in micro-amounts. For its manufacture, a special technology is used, which is feasible in production conditions.

Even distribution of the premix in the final product is unrealistic in the household.

Compound feed PK-6 consists of:

• wheat;
• corn;
• vegetable and animal fats;
• sunflower and soybean meal;
• fishmeal;
• limestone;
• premix.
