The Process Behind Corn Flakes

Let’s Explore the Story Behind Corn Flakes,You’ll Choose It for This Reason

Did you know? During the corn flaking process, heat and moisture cause changes in the starch structure.

This process alters the protein content and makes the nutrients more accessible for digestion.

Unlike ground corn, which is simply crushed, corn flakes undergo a transformation that enhances their nutritional value.

Good corn flakes come from a good machine

Our company can provide this for you. Below are the unique advantages of our products.

Improved Digestibility:
The gelatinization process boosts corn flake digestibility, enhancing nutrient absorption, energy use, and milk production in dairy cows.

Slower Acid Production:
Corn flakes produce acid at a slower rate compared to ground corn.

This is crucial for maintaining a healthy rumen environment, reducing the risk of acidosis—a common issue in cattle fed high-starch diets.

Customizable Feed:
On our farm, we prepare our cattle feed using corn flakes as a key ingredient. This allows us to create a balanced diet tailored to the specific needs of dairy cows and fattening cattle, ensuring optimal health and productivity.

Success in Practice

A mid-sized dairy farm underwent a remarkable transformation, switching from conventional feed to our corn flakes, and achieved significant improvements in just three months

Milk production increased by 10%;

Rumen health issues decreased by 30%;

Feed conversion efficiency improved significantly, reducing feeding costs.

Scientific Feeding Recommendations

Optimizing the gelatinization process to ensure flake density is around 0.31 kg/L;

Directly assessing starch digestibility through fecal starch analysis to fine-tune feed formulations;

Customizing efficient feed formulas with them as the core, tailored to the specific needs of dairy cows.

The Verdict

While ground corn seems simpler, its excel in digestibility, rumen health, and nutritional efficiency. Next time you prepare feed, small change, big impact!
