ratat foder

Känner inte till om det finns någon specifik fackterm term på svenska. Men det verkar ju motsvara "ratat foder". Möjligen "ratat foder plus spill".
Eller "ratad andel (foder)" vid procentsatsangivelse i din näst sista exempelmening.

Kom just på att när det gäller betesmark pratar man "rator" som kan vara fläckar där betesdjur lämnat sin spillning och där de instinktivt inte vill beta. Men antar att rator är alla fläckar som betesdjur skyr oberoende av orsak (spillning, ej smakliga växter). Detta kan väl ge stöd för "ratat foder".

"Analysis of what the cow is excreting through milk and manure is just a start. To truly be able to determine digestibility is to have a handle on what is being fed.

“The only way to have a benchmark is to know what’s going in the front end. Then you have better knowledge of what’s coming out the back end, too,” Block said.

He added, “In a business that is so cost driven with no control of input costs and milk costs, how can you operate and improve profitability margin if you don’t know what’s going into the cows?”

You do not have to do weighbacks every day to accomplish this. Instead concentrate on knowing the actual dry matter content of what is being fed. Keep track if the feeder is mixing the right ration, he says."
