On-Farm Milling Benefits

On-farm milling is a way to take control of feed production, reduce costs, and improve livestock performance. By processing grains directly on-site, farmers can tailor feed to the specific nutritional needs of their animals while avoiding the expense and variability of commercial feed.

  • Reduce feed costs, which can account for up to 70% of total livestock production expenses.
  • Improve feed quality and consistency, enhancing animal health and performance.
  • Increase operational independence, with full control over ingredient sourcing and feed formulation.
  • Adapt quickly to changing nutritional needs, market conditions, or ingredient availability.

Whether feeding poultry, pigs, or ruminants, understanding the operational strengths and limitations of each milling system is essential for building a resilient and efficient feed infrastructure.

Milling Systems

  • Hammer mills: Versatile and ideal for producing fine particles, especially for poultry and pig feed. They can handle a wide range of materials, including fibrous and oily inputs, but tend to consume more energy and generate more dust.
  • Roller mills: Deliver consistent particle sizes with lower energy consumption, making them well-suited for cattle feed and large-scale operations. Their precision and efficiency can lead to significant savings over time.
  • Disc mills: Offer uniform grinding with adjustable settings, making them ideal for farms needing flexibility across different feed types. They are particularly effective for dry grains and pulses and are known for their energy efficiency and low noise output.

Robust, efficient and consistent grinding with a gravity fed SKIOLD's DM6 Hammer Mill. Engineered for high-capacity size reduction of a wide range of materials, from grains and feedstuffs for feed or use as biomass.

SKIOLD ‘Gravity’ Hammer Mills allow raw material to fall throught the inlet into the grinding chamber. Here it is hit by the rotating hammers and thrown against the screen till reduced to a size that allows it to pass through the chosen hole size dimension .  The SKIOLD DM range uses a traditional system with an inlet magnet, flail rotor with hammers and interchangeable screen sizes ranging from 1.0 – 16mm.
