Bespoke Rations Designed by PhD Nutritionists
Stop buying off-the-shelf feed. We formulate to your exact genetic potential, local climate, and performance goals.
Precision Chemistry for Maximum ROI
Generic feeds leave performance on the table. Every commercial farm faces unique challenges, whether it is high ambient heat, specific water quality metrics, or a unique genetic strain. Melick Aquafeeds offers custom feed formulation services designed to address your exact operational parameters.
Our team of PhD and MS nutritionists utilizes state-of-the-art linear programming software. We do not just formulate to "Crude Protein." We formulate on a Standardized Ileal Digestible (SID) amino acid basis, factoring in Net Energy (NE), bioavailable phosphorus, and precision micro-minerals. By identifying the absolute lowest-cost combination of ingredients that hits every nutritional parameter perfectly, we lower your feed cost per pound of gain.
Precision Chemistry
Formulations based on exact amino acid profiles (SID), metabolizable energy, and bioavailable trace minerals, rather than just crude protein.
Linear Optimization
We utilize advanced linear programming software to find the absolute lowest-cost combination of ingredients that meets your strict nutritional targets.
Regulatory Compliance
Every custom formulation includes full AAFCO-compliant guaranteed analysis documentation, ingredient declarations, and mixing protocols.
The Power of Linear Programming
Linear programming is the mathematical backbone of modern feed manufacturing. We input the exact nutritional requirements of your animals, along with the real-time cost and nutritional profile of over 200 available ingredients. The software runs thousands of iterations in seconds to find the one ingredient combination that hits every single minimum and maximum requirement at the absolute lowest cost per ton. If the price of soybean meal spikes, the program seamlessly shifts to alternative protein sources (like DDGS or canola meal) while adjusting synthetic amino acids to keep the nutritional profile identical. This ensures your animals never experience a drop in performance, and you never overpay for feed.
