Uzbekistan 3-5 T/H Poultry Powder Feed Mill Plant & 1T/H Hay Grass Pellet Plant For Cattle Sheep Feed

After months of comparing offers, visiting domestic and foreign equipment makers, and getting to know the technology behind modern feed processing, this customer signed a contract with RICHI Machinery in March 2018. The project they agreed on was unique for the region: a combined animal feed production line that could produce 3-5 tons per hour of poultry powder feed, alongside a 1 ton per hour hay grass pellet line for cattle and sheep.

Uzbekistan 3-5 T/H Poultry Powder Feed Mill Plant & 1T/H Hay Grass Pellet Plant For Cattle Sheep Feed

OVERVIEW

In the outskirts of Tashkent, where urban sprawl gives way to scattered farmsteads and hay fields that roll into the endless plains of Uzbekistan, one local farming family has quietly transformed the way they feed their birds and livestock.

Like many in Uzbekistan's post-Soviet agricultural revival, this customer — the owner of a medium-sized mixed farm — has spent years battling the same problem that farmers all over the region face: expensive, unreliable animal feed supplies, and the constant balancing act of keeping poultry, cattle, and sheep healthy and productive across harsh summers and freezing winters.

Back in 2017, when the farmer first visited RICHI Machinery's headquarters, he had already reached a turning point. Decades of relying on distant wholesalers for poultry mash feed and rough local forage for cattle and sheep were no longer sustainable. Animal health and output suffered, and the local market's demand for clean, safe meat products was rising steadily every year. If he wanted to compete — and make his farm truly profitable — he needed his own feed processing capability.

After months of comparing offers, visiting domestic and foreign equipment makers, and getting to know the technology behind modern feed processing, this customer signed a contract with RICHI Machinery in March 2018. The project they agreed on was unique for the region: a combined animal feed production line that could produce 3-5 tons per hour of poultry powder feed, alongside a 1 ton per hour hay grass pellet line for cattle and sheep.

This bold step would become a small but powerful demonstration of how modern feed technology could lift an entire farm's productivity — and inspire local farmers to think beyond traditional feed mixes.

From Idea to Action: A Year of Research for cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan

Before making this investment, the customer spent nearly a full year conducting site surveys, visiting other poultry and cattle feed plants, and consulting veterinarians and feed nutrition experts. He wanted a system that could handle the raw materials readily available in the Tashkent region while meeting the nutritional needs of both poultry and ruminants.

The biggest challenge was designing a poultry cattle feed mill flexible enough to handle both fine poultry powder feed and coarse, durable hay pellets for cattle and sheep. While Uzbekistan has vast hay fields and crop residues like straw, the traditional feeding methods often waste this biomass, or result in inconsistent nutrition that affects weight gain in animals.

RICHI's engineering team worked closely with him to adapt their proven poultry feed mill technology to include a dedicated section for hay grass pelleting — an uncommon but increasingly popular feature as more Uzbek farmers realize the value of turning loose straw into easy-to-store, easy-to-transport feed blocks.

Raw Materials for cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan

In this part of Uzbekistan, the customer's feed mix draws from a rich basket of regional ingredients. The poultry mash feed relies heavily on local corn and wheat bran — both staples grown in the Fergana and Syr Darya valleys — mixed with oilseed meals such as sunflower cake and cottonseed meal, which are by-products of Uzbekistan's dominant cotton industry.

For the cattle and sheep pellets, the main raw material is native meadow hay and wheat straw gathered from surrounding fields after harvest. To boost nutrition and palatability, a portion of protein-rich oilcake is sometimes added to the forage — about 10-15% — alongside small doses of mineral premix and molasses to bind the pellets and improve taste.

By combining local grains, oilseeds, and abundant hay, this cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan can maintain a steady raw material supply all year, minimizing dependency on imported supplements and reducing costs.

How the Production Line Works: A Practical, Multi-Product Flow

The design of this 4-6 tons per hour cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan is a carefully balanced combination of simplicity, durability, and local practicality.

  1. Raw grains for the poultry mash feed enter the system through a cleaning screen to remove stones and metal. A 37KW hammer mill then grinds the corn, wheat, and oilcakes down to a fine powder — a critical step for young broilers, who need finely ground feed to digest nutrients efficiently.
  2. Next, the ground material is weighed and moved to the 500kg/batch twin-shaft horizontal mixer, where vitamins, trace minerals, and sometimes small doses of functional additives — such as probiotics — are added. Mixing uniformity is crucial for ensuring that every chicken in the shed receives the same nutritional balance.
  3. For the poultry feed, the process stops here. This farm chose to supply mash feed instead of pellets for poultry because local farmers prefer mash for its digestibility and flexibility for layer and broiler birds at different ages. The finished mash is then bagged, stored, or delivered directly to the poultry sheds.
  4. The hay pellet side works slightly differently. Harvested hay and straw are chopped by a grass crusher machine, reducing the forage into manageable lengths. This pre-chopped material is sometimes lightly moistened and mixed with a small amount of molasses or oilcake for better binding. The mixture is then fed into a 37KW grass pellet machine, which compresses it through a die to form 3–8mm pellets — the ideal size for cattle and sheep to chew and digest.
  5. Freshly pressed forage pellets are hot and soft, so they pass through the SKLH14*14 counterflow cooler, which gently removes heat and moisture to make the pellets hard and durable for storage. Finally, a vibrating screen sifts out fines, and an automatic packing machine bags the finished product for easy handling.

The cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan's layout fits comfortably in a workshop measuring 12m x 10m x 23m, optimized for good material flow and easy maintenance.

From Farm to Market: Self-Sufficiency and Extra Profit

This cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan's main output serves the farm's own animals first. Poultry mash feed covers flocks of laying hens and broilers, ensuring a steady supply of fresh, custom-formulated rations that boost egg production and weight gain. For cattle and sheep, the hay pellets are an effective way to store surplus grass and straw, particularly important during the long Uzbek winter when fresh forage is scarce.

Any excess production is sold to neighboring small farms and livestock owners who lack their own processing capacity. Because the pellets are dense, easy to transport, and have longer shelf life than loose hay, they offer extra income for the farm while helping local breeders maintain herd health through the cold months.

A Good Bet: The Future of Animal Feed in Uzbekistan

Investments like this are becoming more common in Uzbekistan, where small and medium farms are upgrading rapidly to meet growing domestic demand for safe, high-protein meat and dairy. The country's climate and crop mix make it ideal for integrated feed production: abundant grains and hay, widespread oilseed crushing, and a large pool of smallholders who need reliable feed but can't afford big factories of their own.

Modern multi-purpose livestock poultry feed production lines like this one show that you don't need to be a massive corporation to control your costs and secure your supply. With a carefully designed livestock feed production line, farmers can use every kilogram of local biomass productively, cut waste, and deliver premium nutrition to their animals at a fraction of the usual cost.

Investment and Impact

The total cost of this cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan project — from equipment supply to installation and training — fell in $130,000 USD, depending on the level of automation and custom layout features chosen. The customer considers it money well spent: by cutting out middlemen, improving feed quality, and creating a new sales channel for forage pellets, the farm expects to recoup the investment within 3–4 years.

RICHI's role did not end with the equipment handover. Their engineering team handled full installation over a 30-day period, overcoming logistical snags, local power supply quirks, and language barriers to deliver a finished, tested line on time. Local farmers and neighbors who toured the new facility praised its modern design — a clear sign that this poultry cattle feed production line in Uzbekistan project is more than just a private investment but a small demonstration of what's possible for other regional farmers.

One Project, Many Lessons

For anyone in Central Asia thinking about how to future-proof their poultry or livestock farm, this success story carries a clear message: investing in feed self-sufficiency pays off, especially when your partner knows how to adapt international technology to local conditions.

Today, this farm's birds lay better, grow faster, and stay healthier through harsh weather swings. Cattle and sheep get the full nutrition they need even when fresh grazing isn't available. And thanks to steady surplus pellet sales, the cattle & poultry feed processing plant in Uzbekistan project now brings in an extra income stream that cushions the farm from market price swings.
