FORMATION OF THE PRODUCING TECHNOLOGICAL LINES OF ANIMALS’ FEED TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION

Abstract

An important part of the system of producing process on a livestock farm is the transport one. It ensures the feed delivery to the livestock farm and feed mixture distribution to animals. The analysis of feed producing flow organizing conditions from the storage’s warehouse to the animal’s feeder is carried out. It is established that feed distributors’ rhythmic work’s organization on livestock complex depends on production and it determines the rationality of technological process. To evaluate the inline technological lines’ efficiency for animal feed’s transporting and distributing, it is proposed full energy capacity intensity using as a meter. This indicator allows to evaluate each element of this system, individual technological processes and includes fuel consumption, electrical and thermal energy, machinery costs, equipment, vehicles, buildings and structures. The conducted studies have shown that the main problems of transportation’s planning are the route with the vehicle’s idle mileage minimum determination, rolling stock and facilities loading along the work distribution routes, which should be closely linked to the performance of stationary machines and equipment. In addition, in order to achieve the of the producing process stability, it is necessary that the execution time of all technical links is optimal and does not exceed the period stipulated by zootechnical requirements. Based on the results of research, analytical dependences were obtained that allow the energy intensity of transport operations during the feed delivery to determine and animals feed mixtures, taking into account the rolling stock’s variety using, fuel energy equivalent, the loaded feed weight and the cars’ ride duration to distribute.
