Question 1 Report

If feed efficiency for egg production is defined as feed consumed per 10 eggs, what will be the feed efficiency for a layer that laid 230 eggs and consumed 26kg feed?
Answer Details
To calculate the feed efficiency, we need to divide the total amount of feed consumed by the number of eggs produced and then multiply the result by 10. Therefore, the feed efficiency of the layer would be: Feed efficiency = (Feed consumed ÷ Number of eggs produced) x 10 Feed efficiency = (26 kg ÷ 230 eggs) x 10 Feed efficiency = 0.113 x 10 Feed efficiency = 1.13 Therefore, the feed efficiency for egg production for the layer is 1.13. Answer option B is correct.
