Poultry Feed Processing Plant In Afghanistan

RICHI MACHINERY

overview

This is a 10t/h poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan project.

The client of this Afghanistan poultry feed mill project is an agricultural enterprise based in Afghanistan, focusing on poultry farming and feed production.

In recent years, with the gradual recovery of Afghanistan’s economy and the rise of rural farming, the demand for poultry products has grown rapidly, especially chicken and eggs have become an important source of protein in the local market.

However, there is a lack of high-quality and nutritionally balanced chicken feed resources in the market, and it is urgent to introduce advanced production lines to ensure the stable supply and quality of feed.

In order to meet the local poultry farming industry’s demand for efficient and safe feed, the customer decided to invest in the construction of a fully automatic poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan with a daily production capacity of 10 tons.

By independently producing high-quality pellet feed, it reduces dependence on imported feed, improves farming efficiency, and adds new economic growth points to local agriculture.

The customer first consulted us about the overall solution of the 10 tons/hour chicken poultry feed production line in early November 2023.

After several rounds of technical exchanges and solution optimization, the two parties formally signed the contract in mid-February 2024. The project amount is about 280,000 US dollars, covering a package of services such as equipment supply, installation and commissioning, and operation training.

Raw material selection and its practical application in Afghanistan

Afghanistan is rich in agricultural resources, but the types of raw materials for processing are limited. This poultry animal feed production plant project mainly uses locally available raw materials, combined with imported high-quality proteins and additives to achieve diversified and scientific formulas.

The main raw materials used in this poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan include:

• Corn grains: As the main source of energy feed, it is widely planted in northern and central Afghanistan and is the main source of carbohydrates in feed.
• Wheat bran: rich in fiber and some protein, providing balanced nutrition for feed. Bran by-products are often available in local grain processing plants.
• Soybean meal: a high-protein component, with limited supply in Afghanistan and needs to be imported from neighboring countries. It is a key raw material for increasing the protein content of feed.
• Fish meal: high-quality animal protein, partially imported from neighboring countries, used to enhance the amino acid structure of feed.
• Vitamin and mineral premixes: ensure the healthy growth of chickens and improve feed conversion rate.
• Fat additives: used to increase the energy density of feed and improve taste and palatability.

Combined with the above raw materials, customers can flexibly mix a variety of formulas to produce chicken feed pellets at different stages (brooding period, egg-laying period, and rearing period).

process design for poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan

This 10t/h poultry feed plant for sale Afghanistan adopts a modern semi-wet granulation process, taking into account efficiency and product quality, and meeting the strict requirements of Afghan customers for feed nutrition and physical properties.

The specific production process includes:

1. Raw material feeding and pretreatment
   All kinds of raw materials are accurately fed by the automatic metering system to ensure stable ratio. The crusher grinds the bulk raw materials to ensure uniform particles, which is conducive to subsequent mixing.
2. Ingredient mixing
   Use a forced mixer to ensure that all kinds of raw materials are fully mixed and uniform to prevent nutrient deviation. The mixing time and speed can be adjusted to meet different formulation requirements.
3. Wet granulation
   The poultry feed pellet making machine adopts ring die technology, combined with appropriate water addition, to make the granule structure compact, moderate hardness, and smooth surface, which helps to keep the feed fresh and reduce dust.
4. Steam sterilization and drying
   The temperature is increased by steam injection to kill bacteria and parasites and ensure feed safety. The dryer ensures that the moisture content of the final granules is controlled at about 12%, which is conducive to storage.
5. Cooling
   The poultry pellets are cooled to room temperature by a cooler to prevent moisture resurgence and deterioration, and to improve the hardness and wear resistance of the product.
6. Screening and finished product packaging
   Fine powder and unformed pellets are removed by a vibrating screener to ensure consistent product specifications. The automatic packaging machine achieves rapid weighing and packaging to improve production efficiency.

This process of this poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan is both efficient and environmentally friendly, retaining the nutrients of the feed to the maximum extent, while complying with Afghanistan’s environmental regulations and reducing dust and wastewater emissions.

Multifunctional application: expanding the possibility of pellet types

Although the poultry feed processing plant in Afghanistan is mainly designed for chicken feed production, its versatility enables it to adapt to a variety of pellet processing needs:

• Pig feed pellets: By adjusting the formula and equipment parameters, feed pellets for pigs at different stages can be processed.
• Aquatic feed pellets: Especially for some freshwater fish feed, different pellet densities and floating and sinking characteristics can be achieved by adjusting the pelletizer speed and mold.
• Cattle and sheep feed pellets: By adjusting the ingredient ratio and processing technology, pellet feed with high crude fiber content suitable for ruminants can be produced.
• Other animal feeds: such as pet food pellets, rabbit feed, etc., can be completed by adjusting production parameters within a certain range.

In addition, the poultry animal feed processing plant in Afghanistan can also adapt to the processing of biomass fuel pellets in the short term, but it needs to cooperate with mold replacement and some equipment maintenance.
