The profitability of the livestock industry largely depends on cost-effective feed ration
formulation as feed accounts for between 60 and 80% of production costs. Therefore, feed …

Feed production is a significant contributor to the environmental footprint of livestock
products. Feed formulation may therefore provide valuable opportunities to reduce impacts …

Animal feed models have been derived by mathematical programming techniques and are
used for the purpose of optimizing weight gain and animal yield. This paper reviews the …

Sustainable feed formulation (defined here as nutritional and economic feed optimization) is
substantial in feed chain production from crop farmers to livestock producers. Diet …

The function of operators in an evolutionary algorithm (EA) is very crucial as the operators
have a strong effect on the performance of the EA. In this paper, a new selection operator is …

Dairy feed ration optimization is one of the most debated problems of the present time. The
presence of linear and non-linear constraints, along with their various potential blends, turns …

Livestock feed production for the intensive dairy industry has a significant environmental
impact. This study evaluated the potential to reduce the environmental impacts of milk …

Formulating feed for shrimps represents a challenge to farmers and industry partners. Most
previous studies selected from only a small number of ingredients due to cost pressures …

This paper focuses on training the mathematical models for prediction of optimal livestock
feed blend for animal. In this paper, three functions are trained to find the most optimal …

Applied tools that allow more precise feeding of animals provide an opportunity to maximize
revenue under milk and feed price oscillations. A compact-vectorized version of the 8th …
