This unit applies to working under limited supervision from others with checking only related to overall progress. It is usually done within established routines, methods and procedures where some discretion and judgement is required in the selection of equipment and materials, organisation of work, services and actions to achieve outcomes within time and budgetary constraints. It requires an understanding of basic nutritional and animal requirements.
This unit covers the process of ordering and storing ingredients and mixing feed for livestock being produced intensively and defines the standard required to: interpret and apply feeding instructions; measure and calculate volumes and consumption requirements; relate livestock performance data to ration consistency; mix feeds and ingredients in line with industry quality standards and requirements; recognise and rectify minor operational faults and perform routine maintenance; complete records and documentation of feed use and volumes for the shed; and take and prepare feed samples for dispatch to the laboratory.
