Uzbekistan 3-5T/H Low Cost Feed Mill Plant For Poultry

Harnessing Local Raw Materials for Reliable Production

Located in Samarkand, a historic region well known for its fertile farmland and concentrated poultry farms, the project was ideally placed to benefit from abundant local grains and oilseeds.

The farm's feed recipes mainly rely on staple crops such as wheat, corn, and barley grown in the Samarkand and Jizzakh regions, combined with soybean meal, sunflower cake, and a smaller portion of cottonseed meal — all readily available as by-products of Uzbekistan's cotton and oilseed processing industries.

The main goal for the new poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan was to produce two distinct feed products: high-energy 3–4mm pellets for broilers and finely ground mash feed for layers. Broiler feed pellets help young chickens grow quickly and uniformly, while the mash feed for layers keeps hens healthy and productive with the right balance of protein, vitamins, and minerals.

Inside the Production Process: Practical and Tailored for Local Conditions

Designing the process of poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan meant balancing the farm's budget with the need for reliable, easy-to-maintain equipment. RICHI's engineers created a compact yet highly functional process layout, spread over a building footprint of just 9m x 5m x 13m. The line's main installed power capacity of 110KW ensures enough energy for consistent output without excessive operating costs — a crucial factor for any low-cost feed production goal.

Here's how the process works in this Samarkand poultry chicken feed production line:

1. First, grains are lifted into the system via a TDTG36/18 bucket elevator, passing through a TCXT20 permanent magnetic sleeve to remove any stray metal impurities — a small step, but one that protects all downstream machines from damage.
2. The clean grains move into a 1m³ pre-crushing bin, ensuring a steady feed to the SWLY20*40 rotary feeder and the SFSP56*60 poultry feed grinder. The hammer mill reduces whole grains and oilseed cakes into uniform particles suitable for poultry digestion. A TBLMa.12A pulse dust collector works alongside, keeping the grinding area clean and minimizing dust loss.
3. After grinding, a TLSS20 screw conveyor — fully sealed to prevent air leaks — transfers the material back to another TDTG36/18 bucket elevator, which lifts it to the SLHY.1 drum mixer. Here, the feed ingredients are thoroughly blended with precise additions of vitamins, minerals, and sometimes natural additives to enhance bird health and feed conversion.
4. Once mixed, the mash destined for layer birds is ready to pack — but for broilers, the feed goes through a crucial final step: pelleting. The SZLH320 poultry feed pellet machine compresses the mash through a die, forming durable 3–4mm pellets. To meet local broiler feed preferences, RICHI worked with the customer to tweak the die's compression ratio, ensuring that the final pellet hardness suits Uzbekistan's typical broiler breeds and feeding practices.
5. Pellets leave the press hot and moist, so they enter the SKLN14×14 cooling machine, which gently reduces moisture and stabilizes the pellet structure. A SSLG15X80 crumbler follows for younger chicks that need smaller particle sizes.
6. The product passes through an SFJH800*2C rotary screener to remove fines, then drops into the DSC-50 automatic packing machine, ready for storage or sale.

Building for Self-Use and Local Supply

The primary aim of this poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan has always been self-sufficiency. By producing his own broiler and layer feed on-site, the farm owner freed himself from dependence on third-party feed suppliers, gaining tight control over feed quality, freshness, and cost per ton.

However, the benefits don't stop at his farm gate. When production exceeds the farm's daily feed requirements, the surplus is sold to neighboring smallholders and backyard poultry keepers. This local supply chain cuts transportation costs and gives smaller farmers access to reliable, consistent feed — a win-win for the entire community.

Real-Life Challenges: RICHI's Expertise in Action

One of the most interesting details in this poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan project is how local feed preferences shaped the final production setup. During the design stage, RICHI's engineers had originally chosen a common pellet compression ratio widely used in China. But after testing, the customer found that the resulting pellets were too hard for their local broiler flocks.

This led to a redesign of the die specification — a subtle yet important example of how a feed mill's “one-size-fits-all” plan often needs local adjustment. The final setup matched the birds' feeding behavior perfectly, proving the value of having an experienced equipment partner willing to adapt designs to real conditions.

The installation stage itself — fully overseen by RICHI's on-site engineers — was equally smooth. Despite being the first animal feed mill plant of its kind for this customer, the entire build, commissioning, and training process went ahead without major issues. By the time RICHI's team made a follow-up visit in 2019, the customer reported excellent operating performance and began discussing a potential capacity expansion — a clear sign that the investment was paying off.

Outlook: Why Small-Scale Feed Mills Matter in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan's poultry sector is still growing fast. Large farms and integrated operations dominate the urban outskirts, but countless small and medium farms scattered across the Fergana Valley, Samarkand, and Tashkent regions supply a huge share of the country's eggs and chicken meat. For these farms, building small but efficient animal feed production lines is the best way to cut reliance on costly imported or long-distance trucked feed.

With local grain and oilseed by-products widely available, Uzbekistan is ideally positioned to make the most of local feed resources. Well-designed small feed mills like this one help farmers lower their production costs per kilogram of live weight, keep birds healthier, and maintain stable production all year round, even when supply chains face seasonal or political disruptions.

Investment, Return, and Trust in RICHI

This 3–5t/h low-cost poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan project came in at a budget of $74,000 USD, depending on final equipment selection and workshop construction. For this customer, the payoff is clear: direct savings on feed costs, healthier flocks, and a new side income stream supplying local neighbors with high-quality feed. With daily output between 3 and 5 tons, the plant can easily handle both the farm’s own birds and surplus sales.

RICHI's full-service approach — from initial design advice and cost calculations to on-site installation and long-term support — ensured the customer's first feed mill build was worry-free. Their positive feedback, and their current interest in expanding capacity, prove that even small-scale operations can benefit hugely from the same professional equipment and processes used by large feed companies.

A New Standard for Smart Poultry Farmers

In the end, this story shows that investing in a smart, low-cost poultry feed mill plant in Uzbekistan is not just for big corporations — it's a practical, profitable step for any farm wanting more control and sustainability.

With strong local supply of grains and oilseeds, government support for poultry development, and a growing consumer market, Uzbekistan's poultry feed sector has nowhere to go but up. Projects like this one in Samarkand stand as a clear example of how modern feed processing pays for itself, improves bird performance, and unlocks new profit streams for forward-thinking farmers.

One farm changed its future. Yours can too.
