What can actually be evaluated
Before changing anything, define the current position in numbers: delivered price per tonne, tonnage per month, the specification you buy, conversion, and losses. Feed Efficiency starts from a measured baseline — without one, any change is impossible to judge.
How to compare options properly
Compare like with like: same nutrient specification, same physical form, same delivery basis and same payment terms. A difference in any one of these can be worth more than the headline price gap, so bring them all into one comparison sheet.
How to take it to market
Turn the review into a structured request: volumes, specification, destination, Incoterm, packaging, schedule and documentation. Clear requests get comparable offers; vague requests get quotations that cannot be evaluated side by side.
Practical checklist
- Real feed economics = feed price × FCR, adjusted for mortality and harvest value.
- A more expensive feed can be the cheaper option, and the reverse is equally true.
- Measure per cycle and per site, then compare like with like.
- Bring the numbers, not impressions, to your next supplier negotiation.
