This is a project about animal feed crusher machine for sale Ethiopia. The client’s facility had previously been relying on an outdated crusher system that couldn’t handle increasing volumes of raw materials such as maize and barley effectively.
This is a project about animal feed crusher machine for sale Ethiopia. In the central region of Ethiopia, a mid-sized animal feed processing facility recently made a strategic purchase—a single animal feed crusher machine from RICHI Machinery—to upgrade its feed preparation capabilities. The client is a privately owned feed production enterprise that mainly supplies feed to local cattle and sheep farms in the Oromia region, where livestock farming is a key livelihood.
With Ethiopia’s increasing focus on livestock productivity, driven by national food security goals and expanding export demand for animal products, the feed industry has been growing rapidly. The client’s facility had previously been relying on an outdated crusher system that couldn’t handle increasing volumes of raw materials such as maize and barley effectively. Instead of overhauling the entire animal feed production line, the client opted to replace only the old grain grinding machine with a high-efficiency RICHI SFSP66×60 animal feed crusher machine, choosing to integrate it with their existing mixers and animal feed pellet machines.
This was a critical move aimed at improving grinding consistency, reducing energy consumption, and ultimately enhancing pellet quality for their compound cattle and sheep feeds.

The client selected the RICHI SFSP66×60 hammer mill crusher machine, based on a thorough evaluation of capacity needs, raw material types, and available power supply.
| Model | Rotor Diameter (mm) | Crushing Chamber Width (mm) | Rotating Speed (rpm) | Hammer Line Speed (m/s) | Power (kW) | Grain Throughput (T/H) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SFSP66×60 | 660 | 600 | 2980 | 103 | 75 | 6-7 |
This model was ideal due to its balance of moderate power demand and sufficient throughput for a mid-sized feed mill. The client typically processes maize, sorghum, and barley, which are among the most common grains cultivated in Ethiopia. These materials form the carbohydrate base of the feed formula, making consistent fine grinding essential to ensuring proper feed conversion by livestock.
In the Ethiopian highlands, animal feed is commonly produced using a base of locally available grains (primarily maize and barley), with additional nutritional supplements such as bran, oilseed cakes, and vitamin premixes. In this project, the crushed material is blended and further processed into pellets for cattle and sheep feeding.
Due to the nutritional and physical requirements of ruminants, especially in semi-intensive operations, the client requires consistently milled particles that can bind well during the pelleting process and provide high digestibility.
RICHI Machinery handled the entire logistics chain for the shipment of the animal feed crusher machine to Ethiopia using sea freight. The equipment was shipped to Port of Djibouti, which is the primary entry point for most imports into landlocked Ethiopia. From Djibouti, the machine was transported via truck to the customer’s facility in the Oromia region.
“The SFSP66×60 hammer mill exceeded our expectations. Compared to our previous crusher, it is faster, more energy-efficient, and the particle size control is excellent. The feed quality has noticeably improved, especially the pellet consistency and animal acceptance. Our maintenance team also appreciates how easy it is to access the internal components for cleaning and inspection.”
They also noted that RICHI Machinery's technical support team provided prompt online assistance during installation and configuration, which helped minimize downtime.
Several key factors led to the customer's decision to choose RICHI's animal feed crusher machine over other options available on the market:
These results translated into a more profitable and efficient operation, enabling the client to meet increasing demand from local cattle farms.
In Ethiopia, livestock contributes to over 40% of the agricultural GDP. As such, efficient feed processing is becoming more important than ever. Animal feed crushers, particularly grain crushers like the RICHI SFSP series, play a key role in improving feed digestibility and optimizing livestock performance. With access to low-cost grains but limited processing technology, many Ethiopian feed producers are investing in single-machine upgrades like this crusher to remain competitive.
This case from Ethiopia exemplifies how even a single animal feed crusher machine can create significant value in a feed production line. RICHI’s wide selection of feed grinder machines for sale, from grain crushers to grass crushers, offers flexible solutions for any scale of operation—whether it's a smallholder cooperative or a large commercial mill.
If you're planning to expand or upgrade your feed processing capabilities, especially for cattle feed production or sheep feed, RICHI Machinery can assist you in selecting the right hammer mill crusher, integrating it into your line, and supporting you every step of the way.
