CONT

Compressed pellets. Steam pelleting, during which the feed ingredients are compressed together, produces a dense pellet that sinks quite rapidly. Another characteristic of compressed pellets is the relatively high proportion of dust and fines in the finished feed, which affects feed wastage.

OBS
