Dry Matter & Ration
Dry Matter / As-Fed Feed Calculator
Convert feed amounts between as-fed and dry-matter basis, quantify moisture, and optionally convert nutrient concentration between as-fed and dry-matter basis.
Open calculator →TMR Dry Matter Adjustment Calculator
Adjust an ingredient’s as-fed feeding amount when dry matter changes while maintaining the same dry-matter contribution per animal and across the herd.

Feed Additives & Enzymes
Feed Additive Break-Even Calculator
Calculate the FCR improvement needed for a feed additive to pay for itself and optionally model net benefit, ROI, and maximum economical product price.
Open calculator →Feed Additive Cost per Ton Calculator
Calculate additive cost per unit of finished feed from product price and inclusion rate, with optional total production-volume requirements.
Open calculator →Feed Enzyme Value and ROI Calculator
Estimate formulation savings, enzyme cost, optional FCR value, net benefit, ROI, break-even FCR, and maximum economical enzyme price from user-entered or source-backed assumptions.
Open calculator →Phytase Phosphorus Replacement Calculator
Estimate the mathematical displacement and ingredient-cost value of an inorganic phosphorus source from a user-entered phytase phosphorus matrix credit.

Feed Efficiency
Feed Conversion Ratio Calculator
Calculate feed conversion ratio (FCR) from total feed consumed and total weight gained. A key metric for livestock and poultry production efficiency.
Open calculator →Feed Efficiency Calculator
Calculate feed efficiency as weight gain divided by feed consumed, the reciprocal of feed conversion ratio.

Ingredient Purchasing & Evaluation
Alternative Feed Value Calculator
Compare reference and alternative feeds using delivered cost, dry matter, shrink, and nutrient value, including a maximum nutrient-equivalent alternative price.
Open calculator →Feed Ingredient Cost per Unit Nutrient Calculator
Calculate the cost per unit of a feed nutrient while handling as-fed versus dry-matter concentration and multiple feed price bases.
Open calculator →Animal Nutrition
Intake & Nutrients
As-Fed Intake Calculator
Convert dry-matter intake to the as-fed quantity required from a feed with a known dry-matter percentage.
Open calculator →Dry Matter Intake Calculator
Estimate daily dry-matter and as-fed feed quantity from body weight, intake percentage, head count, and ration dry matter.
Open calculator →Animal Nutrition
Performance & Production Economics
FCR Improvement Economic Value Calculator
Calculate feed saved, feed-cost savings, and the economic value of each 0.01 FCR point from a current and expected feed conversion ratio.
Open calculator →Feed Cost per Unit of Gain Calculator
Calculate feed cost per kilogram or pound of animal weight gain from feed price and FCR, with optional production-volume, waste, and handling assumptions.
Open calculator →Animal Nutrition
Ration & Mixing
Pearson Square Calculator
Estimate the two-ingredient proportions needed to reach a target nutrient concentration between a high- and low-nutrient ingredient.
Open calculator →Ration Inclusion Rate Calculator
Calculate an ingredient inclusion percentage and scale that inclusion to a target batch or tonnage.
