Results of Optimazing the Technological Parameters of a Total Mixed Ratio (Tmr) Machine

Abstract

New intensive cattle farm is being built with government support in order to meet the self-sufficiency of milk and meat products for Mongolian residents, keep stability, and reduce the seasonal dependence for food supply. It is urgent for us now to produce the mixed feed that is suitable for livestock type and age in the intensive farming. The feeding scientific approach should be specially paid attention to when using the multifunctional Total Mixed Ration (TMR) machine and effectively applying the TMR technology. When using the feed mixer TMR machine, it is necessary to optimize the main parameters of the machine operation and determine the mode parameters according to the characteristics of the grass, the amount of roughage, concentrated feed, additive and ingredients used in the preparation of mixed fodder. This paper made an experiment in Total Mixed Ration (TMR) machine and provided research results combined the parameters of feed mixing uniformity, palate ratio, subdivision rate, rotor speed, mixing times and feed moisture.
