Feed components menu

The feed components table contains suggested levels of feed components for various classes of ruminant animals. Traditionally, these have been called "nutrient requirements," but some of the feed components are not really nutrients. The levels are "suggested" because these levels may not always be appropriate.

The "Select" field is used to specify for which animal the diet will be balanced.

The feed components menu is used to change the contents of the feed components table.

  • Table: Click to view and edit the entire table.
  • Edit: Click to select and edit an individual animal.
  • Add: Click to add a new animal.
  • Duplicate or Delete: Click to duplicate an animal (useful to create a record for an animal not currently in the table) or to delete suggestions for an animal. Note that this window closes immediately after duplicating or deleting a record.
