How to formulate fish feeds and Calculate Crude Protein in Catfish feeds! - High CP feed formula

[@MololuwaFarm]

Pls Note that the formula stated in the video is for Starter and growers demanding high CP. *Correction* Groundnut cake is a by product obtained after extraction of oil. The cake contains 45-60% protein, 22-30% carbohydrate, 3.8-7.5% crude fibre and 4-6% minerals (Desai et al 1999a) Feel free to ask me any questions or clarification contact me wa.me/2348038432577

I ve been yearning for this due to the current high cost of fish feed. This will help me formulate my fish feed. Are there other additives to these CP ? Pls enlighten me sir Many thanks

[@AnyansoAgwara]

Thank you so much for this video. Please what do you use as binder? And how do you make them into pellets for different sizes of fish? Please, is this formulation suitable for all sizes of fish? Thank you so much.

[@MololuwaFarm]

Ok

[@emmiliananamwsndi7636]

Hi. I like ur teachings. I want to ask if I am to use traditional ingredients like melon seeds and acacia pods mixing them with maize crushed seeds. Where will I get their crude protein from since they are not given in the universe standards. I want an answer pls. I am preparing a practical activity for my learners that is to be carried out tomorrow.

[@MololuwaFarm]

Apologies for the late response! You have to crush each of those seeds separately then take to Research labs for Analysis. It's from there you will know the percentage of crude protein, crude fibre, ether, Ash and others even metabolizable energy.

[@samacoagha5050]

Very educative thank you so much.

[@MololuwaFarm]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nnamdiakogwu6065]

Is the feed fumilar floating or sicking

[@a-zfishfarmclass884]

How did you comment about the quantity of each ingredients to make up your 100kg feed?

[@MololuwaFarm]

The method used is a try and error method, however u can as well use Pearson Square method

[@kingfrank6877]

Whats blood meal and gnc

[@TamaleJoseph-x9u]

Thanks bro When you say maize. Do you mean maize flour or maize bran

[@MololuwaFarm]

Normal whole maize (corn)

[@obiageriukpabi1279]

My fishes are 2 months old from the day I bought them. Do they need more protein now. What percentage of protein do the need

[@MololuwaFarm]

Yes they need more protein, anything btw 44-48cp is fine for another 2months. After this, you can subject them to 36-42cp

[@mohammadfararuauwalu5320]

Thank you a lot. It has been educative.

[@MololuwaFarm]

This made my day 🤣

[@GodfreyMetuanghan]

How is the bm added ?is it in raw form or by boiling and drying

[@MololuwaFarm]

No! You use processed blood, and that's why it's called Bloodmeal

[@HansonFishFeeds]

Thanks for the video. Please, what's the optimal values of CP in each category of fish feeds? For example, 2mm, 4mm & 6mm. I will appreciate your response.

[@MololuwaFarm]

The higher the mm of the feed the lower the protein content normally cos fingerlings required more protein than Table sizes. Now to answer Ur question: 2mm Avg CP 48%, 4mm Avg CP 42% 6mm Avg CP 36-38%.

[@HansonFishFeeds]

@@MololuwaFarm Thanks for your quick response. I appreciate.

[@obiageriukpabi1279]

Must I use bloodmeal to formulate can I use fish or crayfish to replace blood meal

[@MololuwaFarm]

Blood meal is used as an alternative not a total replacement for fishmeal! Blood meal is around ₦400/kg while fishmeal is around ₦1600-2000/kg

[@emmiliananamwsndi7636]

Is it possible to use 5kg maize, 3 kg acacia seeds and 2 kg melon seeds to prepare a 10 kg for one pig

[@MololuwaFarm]

I have not used such before, try it and share your experience with us

[@bosedefranciscaadegoriola3986]

Sir, l really appreciate your kind heart may the Lord of heaven bless you abundantly. Please sir what is the percentage of the additive for 100kg and please sir what can l use to replace fish meal

[@MololuwaFarm]

Already uploaded, kindly check

[@ugwupaschal1965]

Some are adding egg to fish feed, adding of egg is it necessary?

[@MololuwaFarm]

No! It's not necessary. Except you will consume the feed within few days...

[@ugosfarms]

[@MololuwaFarm]

So nice of you my oga!

[@kelvinoghenekome]

Good morning and thanks for d info but for the blood meal u stated 10% my question is that whenever I want to make my own feed I have to scale it to be sure is 10kg of cow blood or

[@kelvinoghenekome]

Also where can I get fish meal or pre-mixed my location is warri delta and which addictive do you prefer when making ur feed

[@MololuwaFarm]

Hello! 10% stated in this video is the percentage inclusion. Which means if u are producing 1000kg feed, you will add 100kg bloodmeal.

[@MololuwaFarm]

@@kelvinoghenekome I can help you get foreign fishmeal and other additives if you wish! But first check from your agro-stores over there!

[@amordanganan183]

What is blood meal?

[@MololuwaFarm]

Meal made from Animal blood

[@pkd4437]

Assuming i am preparing 100kg of feed. How many of percent of salt will i add to my feed? Moreover i want to know if the vitamins(premix) are what you consider as salt, lysine, methrolyne. Thanks

[@MololuwaFarm]

100g of salt is ok for a 100kg feed. Premix usually vitamin. Methionine and Lysine are essential Amino Acids that are ready made additives. Salt, Dcp or bone meal and Biotics (medications for your animals) also are additives.

[@titilopeidowu8666]

Gnc is 45%
