The weight of a sheep increased from 25kg to 45kg in two months.
If the total consumption during the period was 60kg. Determine the feed conversion ratio
If the total consumption during the period was 60kg. Determine the feed conversion ratio
1 : 1
1 : 2
3 : 1
4 : 1
Explanation
Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR)
= (Mass gained)/(Mass of feed)
= Mass Gained = 45kg – 25kg = 20kg
= Mass of feed = 60kg
= FCR = \(\frac{20}{60}\)
= \(\frac{1}{3}\)
= 1 : 3
= (Mass gained)/(Mass of feed)
= Mass Gained = 45kg – 25kg = 20kg
= Mass of feed = 60kg
= FCR = \(\frac{20}{60}\)
= \(\frac{1}{3}\)
= 1 : 3
