What drives feed mill CAPEX

Throughput (tph), pelleting vs mash, level of automation, silo capacity, intake design and bagging vs bulk loadout. Automation and silos can double a base equipment quote.

Investment ranges

5 tph farm mill: USD 400k–900k. 20 tph commercial mill: USD 1.5M–3M. 60 tph industrial pelleting mill: USD 6M–14M+ turnkey including civil works, silos and automation.

ROI for integrated producers

Self-milled feed typically saves 8–15% vs commercial feed for integrated poultry operations — delivering 3–5 year payback on mid-scale mills.
