Merits and Limitations of feeding standards
Master Animal Nutrition and Feeding Practices – Notes, Case Studies & Practical Insights – with Rahul

Merits of feeding standards

  • Consists of quantity of nutrients required by an animal to remain healthy and highly productive.
  • Are in accordance with productivity, composition of product and physiological condition.
  • Serves as guides in feeding animals and in estimating adequacy of feed intake and of feed supplies for groups of animals.

 

Limitations of feeding standards

  • Is not a complete guide to feeding because other factors such as palatability and the physical nature of the ration are not taken into account.
  • Environment may change nutrient requirements.
  • Doesn’t consider economics of livestock production.
  • Are misleading when unconventional feed resources are used.
