Anyone here have experience with feed mills? This is totally not up my alley at all.
So I'm headed to a 50,000 hd feedlot in a few weeks and the consulting DVM recommended reading up on feed mills before coming, since these folks have recently built a new one. I've avoided the feeding side of the business in favor of animal health and data, and its obviously coming back to bite me. Google isn't overly helpful... anyone with experience willing to give me some basics? How they run, different types, intelligent questions to ask, etc? If you know of any useful websites I'd certainly be interested in that as well.
Thanks!
