This is a project regarding goat feed grinder machines in Ethiopia. The client’s existing grinder was outdated and inefficient, causing bottlenecks in processing fibrous forage materials like native grass and crop residues that are abundant locally.

This is a project regarding goat feed grinder machines in Ethiopia. In Ethiopia’s rapidly growing livestock sector, a medium-sized feed mill focused on producing nutritious goat feed sought to improve their feed grinding capabilities. The client’s existing grinder was outdated and inefficient, causing bottlenecks in processing fibrous forage materials like native grass and crop residues that are abundant locally.
The feed mill decided to purchase a single grinding machine unit instead of a complete production line upgrade. This decision was driven by the goal of enhancing their raw material preparation stage—specifically, the pulverization of coarse forage—to improve pellet quality without significant overhaul of the whole feed mill.
Name:
goat feed crusher
Country:
Ethiopia
Date:
2025
Capacity:
2.0-2.5 tons/hour
Model:
SFSP66*80
Main Motor Power:
75 kW
Feed Materials:
Elephant grass, teff straw
Final particle size:
2-4 mm
Given the client’s production scale and feed ingredient availability, the SFSP66*80 model goat feed crusher machine was chosen, with the following specifications:
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Rotor Diameter | 660 mm |
| Crushing Chamber Width | 800 mm |
| Rotating Speed | 2980 rpm |
| Hammer Line Speed | 103 m/s |
| Power | 75 kW |
| Capacity | 2.0 - 2.5 tons/hour |
This model fits well with Ethiopia’s feed processing requirements, providing sufficient throughput for a medium-scale operation while maintaining energy efficiency.
Ethiopian goat feed is typically composed of a mixture of:
The grinder efficiently pulverizes these fibrous materials into a consistent particle size of about 2-4 mm, which is optimal for pellet production tailored for goat digestion. This fine grinding enhances feed homogeneity and nutrient availability, critical for small ruminant health and growth.
The SFSP66*80 grinding machine brought several advantages:
This grinding machine was shipped via ocean freight to the Port of Djibouti, the main maritime gateway serving Ethiopia, ensuring timely and secure delivery for inland transport to the feed mill location.
After several months of use, the feed mill manager remarked:
“RICHI’s SFSP66*80 grinder has been a game-changer for our operation. It handles the tough native grasses and crop residues efficiently, providing a finer, consistent grind that improves our pellet quality. The machine’s reliability and the support from RICHI Machinery made the purchase worthwhile. We now meet our production targets without frequent breakdowns.”
This Ethiopian goat feed grinder project underscores the importance of the right grinding equipment in producing high-quality goat pellets from native forage and crop residues. The SFSP66*80 grinder matches the country’s feed raw materials and production scale, delivering reliable performance and efficiency.
Feed mills and farms looking to upgrade their feed preparation stage will find RICHI Machinery’s grinding machines an excellent investment for improved feed quality and operational productivity.
