3-5T/H Livestock Feed Grinder in Tunisia

Equipment Selected: RICHI SFSP56×40 Hammer Mill

The livestock feed grinder’s moderate size, simple structure, and efficient crushing ability make it ideal for farms processing feed for small ruminants such as goats and sheep, which form a large part of the livestock sector in Tunisia.

Raw Materials Used and Local Feed Composition

In Tunisia, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, livestock feed often relies on a mix of homegrown and imported ingredients. For small and medium-sized farms, typical ruminant feed formulas include:

• Barley: A drought-tolerant cereal grown locally, used as a primary energy source
• Corn (Maize): Used in smaller quantities due to its cost but still a valuable energy ingredient
• Fava Beans (Broad Beans): Locally abundant, serve as a natural protein source
• Straw or Chopped Hay: Often added for fiber content
• Mineral Premix and Salt: To balance nutrient profiles

The livestock feed grinder in Tunisia effectively processes all these ingredients, ensuring even particle size suitable for mixing and improved digestibility for goats and sheep.

Role of the Livestock Feed Grinder in the Project

The newly purchased grain hammer mill plays a crucial role in the farm’s updated feed preparation system:

• It replaces a locally made disc grinder that produced inconsistent particle sizes and frequently overheated
• The SFSP56×40 now ensures uniform crushing of grains and legumes, which is essential for optimal rumen function in sheep and goats
• Its compact size allows easy installation beside the farm’s existing feed mixer
• With an output of 3–5 T/H, it comfortably meets the daily feed processing requirements of the farm’s 450+ head livestock operation

This single machine upgrade significantly improved the productivity and quality of the farm’s internal feed production.

Shipping Logistics: Delivered via Port of Rades

RICHI shipped the feed crusher machine by sea to Port of Rades, Tunisia’s principal port for agricultural machinery imports. From there, it was transported by road to the customer’s farm in the Sidi Bouzid region.

RICHI’s logistics team ensured all documentation, customs clearance, and delivery coordination was managed smoothly. We also provided a remote installation guide, as well as video support to help the local technician with initial commissioning.

Customer Feedback

The farm owner shared the following insights:

“Before installing the RICHI livestock feed grinder, we struggled with uneven feed texture. Some batches were too coarse, others too fine, and it affected how our sheep responded to the feed. Since we started using the SFSP56×40 hammer mill, everything changed. The feed is much more consistent, and we've noticed improved animal performance. We’re saving time, reducing feed waste, and have even started helping nearby farms grind their grains. Very pleased with RICHI’s support and quality.”
