Pig pellet feed is one of the formulated feeds, which is a kind of granular feed made from full price mixture and extruded. It's usually cylindrical.

猪用颗粒饲料的优点主要有以下几点：

The advantages of pellet feed for pigs are as follows:

1、便于贮藏、包装、运输

1. Easy to store, package and transport

饲料成型后，颗粒饲料比粉状饲料体积缩小约1/3，便于贮藏、包装、运输；在贮藏过程中，粉状饲料容易吸湿结块、发霉变质，正常情况下只能保存7~10d，而颗粒饲料的散落性好，吸湿性小，贮藏稳定性高，正常情况下可以保存35~45d，保存时间是粉料的4~5倍；成品运输过程中避免了自动分级现象；在包装、使用过程中降低了粉尘及微量成分的损失。

After the feed is shaped, the volume of pellet feed is reduced by about 1 / 3 compared with that of powder feed, which is convenient for storage, packaging and transportation. During the storage process, the powder feed is easy to absorb moisture, caking and moldy. Under normal circumstances, it can only be stored for 7-10 days. However, the pellet feed has good dispersibility, low hygroscopicity and high storage stability. Under normal circumstances, it can be stored for 35-45 days, and the storage time is 4-5 times as long as that of powder feed; the finished product is finished In the process of transportation, it avoids the phenomenon of automatic classification, and reduces the loss of dust and trace components in the process of packaging and use.

2、

2. Sterilization

在制粒过程中，饲料中某些有毒物质或抑制因子（如胰蛋白酶抑制因子、血球凝集素等）因热作用而被破坏。同时可杀灭90%的沙门氏杆菌。

In the process of pelleting, some toxic substances or inhibitors (such as trypsin inhibitor and hemagglutinin) in feed are destroyed by heat. At the same time, it can kill 90% of Salmonella.

3、提高猪的适口性，增加采食量

3. Improve the palatability and feed intake of pigs

由于颗粒饲料密度大，体积减少，营养浓度高，加工工艺制粒熟化后，使原料成分（玉米、豆粕）散发天然的香味，适口性明显增加，从而使动物的采食量也显著增加。

Due to the high density, reduced volume and high nutrient concentration of pellet feed, the raw material components (corn and soybean meal) emit natural fragrance after granulation and ripening by processing technology, and the palatability is significantly increased, so the feed intake of animals is also significantly increased.

4、便于猪消化吸收，提高饲料利用率

4. It is convenient for pig to digest and absorb and improve feed utilization rate

通过制粒熟化，改善了饲料中某些营养成分的理化性质，提高了饲料利用率，营养物质利用率也相应提高。

Through granulation and ripening, the physicochemical properties of some nutrients in feed were improved, and the utilization rate of nutrients was also improved.

5、防止猪挑食，减少饲料浪费

5. Prevent pigs from picky eating and reduce feed waste

由于颗粒饲料的大小均匀，营养，从而保证了日粮组分的一体性和全价性，避免了猪群按其适口性挑选饲料。颗粒饲料减少向空中、水中到处飞散粉尘而造成的损失。饲喂粉料由于粉尘多，空气中的饲料粉尘给病原微生物提供了舒适的生存环境，在目前养猪场呼吸道疾病到处存在的情况下，带有病原微生物粉尘在进入猪的呼吸道诱发呼吸道疾病的同时，给猪场技术人员控制呼吸道疾病增加大大的难度，而饲喂颗粒饲料的猪场空气粉尘很少，

Due to the uniform size and comprehensive nutrition of pellet feed, the integrity and full price of the diet components were ensured, and the feed selection according to its palatability was avoided. Pellet feed can reduce the loss caused by flying dust in the air and water. Due to the large amount of dust in the feed powder, the feed dust in the air provides a comfortable living environment for pathogenic microorganisms. In the current situation that respiratory diseases exist everywhere in pig farms, the dust with pathogenic microorganisms enters the respiratory tract of pigs to induce respiratory diseases, which makes it more difficult for technical personnel to control respiratory diseases There is little dust,

实际情况证明，猪用颗粒饲料的呼吸道疾病更少、更容易控制；而且颗粒饲料便于识别，如仔猪、生长猪、肥育猪的颗粒饲料大小是由小到大的，减少员工饲喂错误引起的浪费。

The actual situation has proved that the pig pellet feed has fewer respiratory diseases and is easier to control; moreover, the pellet feed is easy to identify. For example, the size of pellet feed for piglets, growing pigs and finishing pigs is from small to large, which can reduce the waste caused by feeding mistakes of employees.
