Subject: Re: starting a feed business



Western Oregon
I should point out that I am quite small scale.
I have one customer who takes 6,000lbs of pig feed per month. Another who takes 4,000lbs of cow feed every four months. One customer takes five buckets of chicken feed every other week, another takes 4 55gallon drums every two weeks.
This also illustrates how hard it is to sell by volume. It is impossible to describe your sales without resorting to pounds. I sell in large cardboard boxes, big bags, five gallon buckets, garbage cans and 55 gallon drums.
I use a NH 357 mixer grinder and do 4,000lb batches.
