A Spreadsheet-Based Instructional Feed Formulation Program for Poultry and Swine (WUFFDA)

A Microsoft Excel-based workbook has been developed for teaching poultry and swine nutrition. The program uses the Solver feature of Excel to find the least-cost solution to linear programming feed formulation problems. The program is available in Afrikaans, Albanian, Chinese, Croatian, English, French, German, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, or Turkish. The complete WUFFDA package consists of 3 files: The WUFFDA Excel workbook itself ; a Microsoft PowerPoint file that can be used in lecture or auto-tutorial situations to teach the Excel program ; and a Microsoft Word file that explains the Excel Program. All may be downloaded free from http://www.ces.uga.edu/ES-pubs/WUFFDA.htm. Problem size is limited to 25 ingredients and 34 nutrients. Several ingredient composition tables are included in the workbook, and new ingredients can easily be copied into the current, or active, problem. Nutrient specifications are included for broiler, laying and breeding chickens, turkeys, quail, ducks, guineas, goslings, and growing, gestating, and lactating swine.
