| abstract |
The invention consists of an animal feed formulation based on tropical legumes and grasses with a high protein content, said formulation comprising, inter alia, a combination of grains, a first protein source, forage, a second protein source, a third protein source and a fourth mineral source. One of the protein sources can comprise Canavalia Canavalia ensiformis . The animal feed formulation can also include a forage legume of the Stylosanthes genus. In addition, the animal feed formulation can include a tropical fodder of the Brachiaria or Panicum genera. The synergistic combination of forage legumes and tropical fodder results in a balanced feed with a high concentration of tropical raw materials, which is easy to produce and affordable. Similarly, the invention also comprises a method for producing the feed in pellet form, based on the formulation described above, from which the anti-nutritional factors derived from Canavalia Canavalia ensiformis have been eliminated. |
