Formulation Methods

There are two methods of least cost feed formulation.

1) Linear Formulation

Almost all commercial feed formulation software use Linear Programming Method. Mathematically, this method provides only 50% assurance to meet nutrient level in the ration.

2) Stochastic Formulation

The other method is called Stochastic Programming. This method can raise assurance to meet nutrient level in the ration from 50% to 99.99%.

WinFeed is the first feed formulation software in the world that has capability to formulate least cost diets based on Stochastic Programming. To learn more about Stochastic Feed Formulation click here.
