6.5.6.2 Changing the default concentration plan
There is a concentration plan for every feeding plan. Just like the feeding plan, the concentra-
tion plan can be divided into 5 periods. The default setting is one period,
P 1
. The period length
of the quantity plans is, however, not bound to the period length of the feeding plans.
For example, if you want to keep the feed concentration the same for all feeding periods, in
P 1
in the
Days
column, you can enter the same number that is specified for the total number
of feeding days in the
Duration
menu item.
The default milk substitute concentration is
150 g/l
. Periods
P 2
to
P 5
are not activated by
default.
