| Summary: |
There are steps you can take to reduce the risk of damaging feed on-farm. If
5% of feed is damaged and lost to dust and waste it can cost up to £5000/year on a
500 sow unit; this could increase to £20000 plus if finishers are included, equating
to an extra cost of 1 p/kg deadweight.
Use this guide to walk your system and reduce the risk of waste.
Working with your feed supplier and delivery driver can help a great deal. |
