departments and also interviewing the managers of all the departments.
SECONDARY DATA:
The annual growth rate is 12-15% in the broiler industry in India. With the
annual production of 530 million broilers, India is the fifth world’s largest
poultry meat producing country on placements.
Animal protein consumption for Indian people comes mainly from poultry,
goat, beef, and pork. Amongst them, poultry is the top player. The annual per
capita consumption in India is only 630 grams of poultry meat. This is much
lower as compared to the world average of 5.9 kg meat. The National
Committee on Human Nutrition in India has recommended per capita of 10.8 kg
meat .To meet this target , it is estimated that by year 2010, the requirements
will be 9.1 billion kg poultry meat while the estimated production may only be
around 3.04 billion kg poultry meat.
parent, female layer breeding stocks have to increase from 1.41 million to 3.12
million. The broiler breeder female stocks have to grow from 5.80 million to 20
million.
The above statistics clearly shows SUGUNA is having a tremendous scope for
its substantial growth.
The market research report " Vision for Indian Poultry Industry: Current
Scenario and Future Prospects" predicts a relatively strong growth for the egg
and poultry meat industry, in the both urban and rural areas, in the next two
decades. With the continual rise in income, it is estimated to nearly triple by
2020
In line with the rapid growth of the poultry industry, the feed industry has also
been growing very quickly. Feed generally is considered to be the major input
for poultry production and may account for 70 to 80 per cent of the total
production cost. Since poultry feed is composed of several raw materials, the
cost and supply of raw material either produced locally or imported determines
poultry prices.
Poultry feeds are composed of important groups of ingredients which are called
nutrients and consist of maize grains, gluten, blood meal, fish meal and Soya
bean meal. A good poultry feed contains a proper balance of nutrients which
will satisfy the chicken's requirement whether it is a layer or broiler or starter.
being raised on high protein feed for a period of five to six weeks. Broiler meat
is the cheapest source of animal protein available in our country. The time
required for raising broiler birds is lesser than that for other big animals. The
consumption of white meat is increasing due to growing health consciousness in
the masses.
Besides, each pellet is complete feed and toxic pathogens and anti-nutritional
factors are destroyed during pellet production. The compounding process will
generate heat and pressure which helps to kill any harmful bacteria in any of the
ingredients. Poultry feed is regularly tested for bacteria which might cause
infection in the birds.
The mill will receive various feed ingredients such as corn and Soya meal via
railway and Lorries and convert it to the perfect nutritional formula to optimize
healthy growth for all of Suguna's chickens. This highly-automated mill will
produce 6,36,000MT of feed per Annum to supply to all poultry broiler contract
farms in the regions of Karnataka and Andhra and to raise their chicks apart
from the parent and grandparent layers being bred in this region.
Our Industry is of livestock sector, in which, the day old chicks (DOC) are
being raised on high protein feed for a period of five to six weeks. Broiler meat

For the manufacture of pellet feed for poultry Maize is the main ingredient. The
composition of feed is about 60% to 65% of maize and about 20-30% of Soya
de-oiled cake. In addition to the above, about dozen other ingredients are being
added for the positive effect on broiler growth. Poultry Industry has as many as
sixteen types of breeder feed meant for chicks, male birds, grower birds etc.
The blending ratio of the raw materials for each and every type of feed will be
As maize and Soya are the major inputs for the manufacture of feed, they are
being stored in large capacity silos. So also Molasses (3%) is stored in large
capacity above ground Tanks. Other materials will be stored in the bins /
godown. Each raw material as and when received will be subjected to strict
quality tests. An in-house State of Art lab will be ready and helpful to inspect
the materials before being unloaded. Stringent quality check will be followed
on all the raw material purchased for manufacture of feed. The material which
fails the quality requirement will be rejected.
All the raw material received will be cleaned in the grain cleaner to take away
the impurities like stone, straw etc before being stored in the silos. The All the
materials are handled in the automated conveyor systems. The feed mill thus
will facilitate the move of materials using machines significantly.
All the materials which are stored in the bin & silos will be mixed in proportion
based on the formulation using the Micro processor based Batching system. The
Pulverizes will pound premixed materials into Mash feed and then the feed will
be collected and carried through another bucket elevator to mixture machine. In
this machine, the medicinal premix / oils will be added and uniformly mixed for
a specified duration. The homogeneous powdered Mash is then being carried
over to Pellet Mill. It will then be transferred to an insulated jacket bin where
the materials will be kept at a high temperature of around 82 degree Celsius for
a minimum period of 2.5 minutes for the removal of harmful bacteria. This
process is called Hygienising. From the hygienising chamber the feed is drawn
to pellet mill where appropriate quantity of steam is being added to palletize the
feed. The pelleted feed is then drawn, cooled and for being crumbled. The
Pellet Feed is then sent to the packing house area for being packed in poly bags
of appropriate weight.
The advantages of the above system are mainly the following:
• The entire feed will be free from harmful germs
• The pellet feed will be a homogeneous and reduced bulkiness and will
ensure that the birds are fed with the appropriate dosage of feed.
• The pellet feed will get half cooked in this modern process and will be
easily digested by the birds.
• The pellet feed will ensure very lower wastage percentage when fed to
birds.
• The entire feed mill area will be geared up to maintain a higher level of
bio-security measures right from the point of unloading of raw materials
to the point of dispatch of finished goods. Because of the hygienic
process, each pellet is a complete feed and toxic pathogens and anti-
nutritional factors are destroyed during pellet production.
SUGUNA will also comply with the other statutory requirements mentioned
hereunder for the start of this feed mill.
