Set ingredient requirements per feed group<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

When you start with fodjan, the appropriate feed model<\/a> for your country is set as the default setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For advanced users<\/strong>, however, it may be useful to define the requirements for the ingredients of the ration per feed group. This allows you in particular to adapt <\/strong>the feed health assessment<\/a> and ration optimisation<\/a> to your experience and goals and to set your own definition of a “good ration”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We recommend that you only make changes that have actually proven themselves in practical feeding. If too many changes are made or the limits are set too narrowly, the feed health score may then quickly slip into the red zone and the ration optimizer will not be able to calculate any or only very few ration suggestions that fit your settings. So consult your adviser or vet here if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> You can find out how to adjust the requirements for bulk elements, trace elements and vitamins here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Go to the tab requirements.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Here the optimum range <\/strong>of the ingredients is indicated one below the other with the amount per day and one with the amount per kg DM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In the column Requirement<\/strong> it is indicated whether the requirements currently come from the model <\/strong>(Model) or from own data<\/strong> (Own) or are not specified at all (None).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
