Feed Conversion Ratio
Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is a key metric of nutritional efficiency in livestock, measuring the amount of feed consumed relative to animal growth or product output. Developed by animal nutrition scientists in the mid-20th century, FCR quantifies how efficiently livestock convert dietary nutrients into meat, milk, eggs, or other products. It is a primary driver of profitability in commercial animal agriculture and a focus of genetic selection in breeding programs.
