EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OBTAINED WHEN STUDYING THE NOXES REMOVED DURING THE PRODUCTION OF COMBINED FODDER FOR DAIRY COWS

Abstract

Given the competition at the profile market, combined fodder factories have as their main objective to be as efficient as possible, which can be achieved by delivering to clients of very high quality finished products at a cost price as low as possible. Many combined fodder recipes are produced, depending on the species of animals fed and of their age.
 This article analyses the production process of combined fodder used to feed dairy cows. That is because, analysing the statistics obtained worldwide, it can be seen that a fairly large percentage (approximately 16-17% of the total production of combined fodder) is directed to feed this zootechnical sector, represented by dairy cows. An essential requirement imposed by the European Union is that of maintaining a level of pollution as low as possible. That is why this article presents the experimental results obtained at measuring the noxes eliminated by the work installations during the production of the combined fodder assortments for dairy cows. The rigorous monitoring of the noxes eliminated during the production process in a combined fodder factory is necessary for the following reasons: the safety of the human staff servicing the work equipment and a lowest pollution of the environment.
