Fish love it because of the protein concentrate in it. They can smell it meters away, even in this cold weather

[Tersum @Tersum2]

For those who have access to land, and want high protein grass throughout winter, consider growing Psathyrostachys juncea or Russian wildrye. Up to 32% protein and great for foraging animals

Feed pellets are produced by applying a lot of pressure. In the process a great of heat is produced. The hot pellets must then be cooled,in a cooling unit. Click below to see how a commercial cooling unit works

(10) Methionine: another essential amino acid, which contains sulphur and the amine group in its structure. It is also a progenitor of two other amino acids, namely cysteine and lysine

A thread on feed terms for the next couple of days. Feel free to add more

(1) crude protein, CP also known as total protein: a measure of all nitrogen sources in feed, both protein and non-protein i.e. amino acid nitrogen and urea nitrogen respectively

[Tersum @Tersum2]

(9) Lysine: one of the essential amino acids, and it is is limiting in the case of pigs and poultry, therefore generally requires supplementation

Dr Nathan Shamuyarira told me that when Strive Masiyiwa came up with the idea for econet, some ministers in Mugabe’s government laughed at the idea and argued that Zimbabwe didn’t need a “silly idea like that.”

He told me that they argued that what was needed was to expand the roll out of landlines to the people.

“Why should we have mobile phones when people in Mutoko and Chivi don’t have a real home phone,” they argued.

One of Strive Masiyiwa’s partners, Dr Daniel Shumba sold his shareholding in Econet and started a landline company called Tele Access hoping to make millions of money.

As we all know very few of you reading this tweet has a landline.
I have a landline in my home but it has never rang for 2 years.

Strive Masiyiwa was thinking ahead of most Zimbabweans at the time, and he was proved right laughed Dr Shamuyarira as we drank tea outside his home.

He was being told to focus on the basic issues and problems that faced Zimbabwe at the time and not waste time on a fancy technology for rich countries called a mobile phone, said Dr Shamuyarira.

I am saying this after some of the responses I read on my tweet on electric cars.

Some people say that we should solve basic things like healthcare first.
But what is there to solve in healthcare?

We don’t have a healthcare problem, we have a corruption problem.
So should everything else stop because ZANUPF is corrupt?

Some say we don’t have enough electricity, we actually do.
The only problem is that we don’t have a competent government that distributes electricity by allowing private actors in the industry and stop looting.

You see, our people have now become so used and conditioned to mediocrity such that they argue to maintain it, and that is what corrupt politicians want.m to hear.

A child who was born in a Harare with boreholes doesn’t really think that clean running water is a necessity because they were born into the mediocrity of boreholes.

A small country like Rwanda has an Electric Car policy, and it has targets of how many electric cars it must have by 2030.

Yet a bigger economy like Zimbabwe has its citizens thinking that Electric Cars are a far fetched idea.

It costs US$14 to get a full charge for an electric car, and it costs US$100 or more to get a full tank of petrol or diesel.

Someone like myself who is now off grid won’t pay a penny towards the charging of such cars because we are generating our own energy, most of which goes to worst because we are generating more than we need.

Surely with those comparisons, is it not worth allowing those who can afford electric cars to bring them duty free to save the country from importing any amount of fuel and let that money go to other areas?

Do you really think that because ZANUPF is stealing money for radiotherapy machines, we shouldn’t therefore think about ideas that enhance the quality of life for all gradually?

One electric car reduced emissions into the atmosphere, doesn’t that matter to you?

The EU will officially ban the sale of new passenger cars and vans using internal combustion engines (ICE) from 2035, after the European Council adopted the proposal this year.

Japan plans to ban the sale of fuel vehicles too in 2035 too.

Where do we buy our cars at the moment, is it not mostly Europe and of course Japan?

Do we want to wait until this ban comes into effect for us to start doing something about this?

I didn’t say ban internal combustion engines in Zimbabwe today, I said let us start facilitating the migration for those who can afford it!

Certain types of fish feed from the water surface and therefore prefer floating food. Tilapia fish is one of them. An extruder produces fish feed in the form of floating pellets. Check out this animation to see how the extruder works

DIY feed forever. Many benefits 👍🏿

[The Meating Block @MeatmasterBW]

Went & had my nutritional analysis done on my DIY licks a few months back. Fat, protein, DM, sillanium, the works..! I must say, I am very happy with the results. Did the same for all the other DIY feed suppliments too. Deep into winter & the coats are telling a good story 👍🏾

[Tersum @Tersum2]

Just in case you didn’t know how a flat-die pelletiser works. Pellets are a common form of feed. Check out this short clip

[Tersum @Tersum2]

A hammer mill is a critical feed processing equipment, primarily used for crushing grain into smaller workable fragments. This is how it works 👇🏽
