Customer feedback on the livestock feed production line in Tanzania
Mr. John Mwamba,Dar es Salaamcustomer
“This production line perfectly meets our needs. It can produce cattle feed for our own cattle farm and also chicken feed for sale to other customers. Changing the molds is very convenient. Now our feed has a great reputation locally,and we’re getting more and more orders. We plan to expand with a second production line next year.”
Mr. Hassan Kikwete,Arushacustomer
“Many sheep farmers in our area used to mix their own feed or buy expensive imported feed. The forage processing system designed for us by RICHI is very practical. It can process local,inexpensive forage into hay meal and add it to the feed,greatly reducing costs.”
Mr. Joseph Mbogo,Moshicustomer
“This is the most advanced feed production line in our region. RICHI designed a highly automated line for us,requiring only two workers to manage the entire line. The feed pellets are of excellent quality and sell very well in our market. The equipment has been running very stably for over a year,and RICHI’s technical support has been timely.”

Advantages and Value of Livestock Feed Production Line in Tanzania
As Tanzania’s livestock industry continues to expand, farmers’ demand for stable, high-quality feed is also growing. Compared to long-term reliance on imported feed, more and more ranches in Tanzania are choosing local production. Combining local raw material conditions and the operating environment, RICHI livestock feed production lines have demonstrated significant advantages in practical applications.
- Using RICHI feed production lines to produce feed can significantly reduce dependence on imported feed, lowering overall costs by approximately 50%. For farms, these savings translate into real profits each year.
- Pelleted feed is nutritionally uniform and palatable, leading to increased livestock consumption, better digestion, faster growth, and fewer diseases, resulting in higher slaughter rates and better selling prices.
- Pelleted feed is less prone to scattering and less likely to be picked over, resulting in less waste compared to powdered feed. With the same amount of feed, higher returns can be achieved, making it particularly suitable for large-scale farming.
- Pelleted feed has a low moisture content, making it more resistant to storage in Tanzania’s hot and humid environment. It is also easier to package and transport, reducing warehousing and logistical burdens.
- The equipment is configured according to local power and raw material conditions, operates stably, and with continuous technical support, the payback period is short and the long-term returns are stable.

Development Potential of Livestock Feed Production Line In Tanzania
Tanzania boasts a solid livestock foundation with a large livestock and poultry population. With population growth and urbanization, meat and egg consumption continues to increase, leading to a growing demand for compound feed.
Currently, local feed production capacity is significantly insufficient, and the market relies heavily on imports, resulting in high prices and unstable supply. Establishing local feed production lines would not only offer cost advantages but also facilitate access to surrounding markets.
In terms of development trends, poultry feed is experiencing the fastest growth. While poultry farming is expanding rapidly, the adoption rate of commercial feed remains low, and the next few years will see a concentrated growth phase.
Simultaneously, livestock feed demand is steadily increasing, and farming methods are shifting from traditional grazing to supplementary feeding and standardized farming, providing a foundation for long-term development.

Frequently Asked Questions about Livestock Feed Production Line in Tanzania
1. What is the raw material supply situation in Tanzania?
+
Overall, conditions are good, suitable for localized production.
The supply of raw materials such as corn, bran, and cottonseed meal is stable locally at relatively affordable prices, and forage resources are also abundant. While some protein raw materials require imports, a large proportion can be sourced locally through proper formulation, effectively controlling costs.
We have assisted several clients in establishing stable local procurement channels and continuously optimize our formulations based on local market conditions.
2. How long does it take to ship the equipment to Tanzania? Is customs clearance complicated?
+
The process is mature and highly controllable. The overall timeline from Qingdao port in China to the port in Tanzania, and then to the factory site, is quite clear. Regarding customs clearance, feed processing equipment is an encouraged product category, and we will assist in preparing complete documentation and provide customs clearance guidance. In actual projects, we have encountered virtually no obstacles.
3. My worker’s skill level is average, can they operate the equipment?
+
Yes, the equipment is designed to be easy to use. The interface is intuitive, and there are complete Swahili and English documentation. We will provide systematic training and video tutorials, so even beginners can quickly operate the equipment independently.
4. Can livestock feed and poultry feed be produced simultaneously?
+
Absolutely, and it’s very common in real-world projects.
By configuring molds with different aperture sizes and pre-setting multiple formulas in the system, livestock and poultry feeds can be flexibly produced on the same production line. Once proficient, switching between molds and formulas is very convenient and requires no complex modifications.
This method is particularly suitable for customers who have both internal needs and wish to sell their products. On the one hand, it meets their own farming needs; on the other hand, it allows them to adjust their product structure according to market changes. For example, if poultry feed demand is higher at a certain stage, poultry feed production can be prioritized, thereby improving equipment utilization and overall profitability.
In actual operation, simply following the specifications for cleaning and parameter adjustments before changing feeds ensures that different feeds do not interfere with each other. We also provide detailed switching procedures and operating instructions to ensure stable production and consistent quality.
