Dairy ration formulation software on a dry-matter basis
Build dairy concentrates and total mixed rations with your own nutrients and your own values. Switch the whole formula to a dry-matter basis and every limit is enforced on dry matter while the ration is built.
Dry-matter targets
One selector moves the formula between as-fed and dry-matter basis. A dry-matter limit is met exactly, whatever the ration’s final moisture turns out to be.
Your ruminant nutrients
Add net energy, NDF, ADF, degradable and bypass protein or anything else you work with, in your own units and sections.
DCAB with sulphur
DCAB is calculated from sodium, potassium, chloride and sulphur, and a limit on it is enforced in the formula.
Forage and concentrate shares
Hold any ingredient category, such as forages or oilseed meals, within a minimum and maximum share of the ration.
Equations you write
Derive a nutrient from others with your own equation, for the whole database or for a single ingredient, and it stays in step when values change.
Published tables to start from
Look ingredients up in the built-in reference shelf, including NRC Dairy, and import the rows you choose into your own database.
FeedForté does not supply targets or recommend levels. You decide the limits; it finds the least-cost way to meet them. How the dry-matter basis works · Other species
