# Forage plants
feed_list(category = "forage")

# Plant products/by-products
feed_list(category = "plantProduct")

# Feeds of animal origin
feed_list(category = "animalOrigin")

# Other feeds
feed_list(category = "other")

feed_search("maize")

feed_info

feed_info function shows the nutritive values of the specific feedstuff(url) in the form of a dataframe.

# get the information about the url
feed_info(url = "https://www.feedipedia.org/node/556")

Conversion

dm_asis

dm_asis function converts dry-matter basis into as-is basis.

df <- data.frame(nutrient = c("CP", "NDF", "EE", "Ash"), composition = c(10, 30, 5, 2))
dm_asis(composition = df$composition, dm = 85, digits = 2)

asis_dm

asis_dm function converts as-is basis into dry-mater basis.

df <- data.frame(nutrient = c("CP", "NDF", "EE", "Ash"), composition = c(10, 30, 5, 2))
asis_dm(composition = df$composition, dm = 85, digits = 2)

j_cal

j_cal function converts joule into calorie.

j_cal(joule = 4000, standard = "15")

cal_j

cal_j function converts calorie into joule.

cal_j(cal = 5000, standard = "15")
