[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 6677292, member: 54866"] There is a hell of a lot more than 5 main ingredients (think I had 12 to play with) and the small inclusions can make a huge difference to finished products. Some mills produce blends/meals using actual mill equipment rather than a mixer wagon but it can be done this way. Molasses or soya oil to control dust is a major consideration also. Biggest savings will be in the booking of straights. The smaller inclusions can be hard to buy right and mix consistently plus keeping stocks or reordering can be problematic. I cant see hipro soya is economic to use now and some milk buyers wont allow it. I wouldnt put bread or biscuit meal in a blend either. [/QUOTE]
