👉 Feeding math is a method used in animal nutrition to determine the optimal amount of feed an animal should consume based on its energy requirements, growth stage, and other physiological factors. It involves calculating the animal's basal metabolic rate (BMR) for maintenance, then adding additional energy demands for growth, reproduction, and other activities. This total energy requirement is divided into feeding rates to ensure the animal receives enough nutrients without overfeeding, which can lead to obesity and health issues. The math typically considers factors like age, weight, activity level, and environmental conditions to provide precise feeding recommendations that maintain the animal's health and productivity.
