The weight of a sheep increased from 25kg to 45kg in two months.
If the total consumption during the period was 60kg. Determine the feed conversion ratio
  • A.
    1 : 1
  • B.
    1 : 2
  • C.
    3 : 1
  • D.
    4 : 1
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR)
= (Mass gained)/(Mass of feed)
= Mass Gained = 45kg – 25kg = 20kg
= Mass of feed = 60kg
= FCR = (frac{20}{60})
= (frac{1}{3})
= 1 : 3
