FCR = Feed intake (kg) / Egg production (kg) to calculate the FCR. For instance, if birds consumed 30 kg of feed and produced 15 kg of eggs, the FCR would be (30 kg / 15 kg) 2kg.

The Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) is calculated by dividing the total feed intake by the egg production, so in this case, if birds consumed 30 kg of feed and produced 15 kg of eggs, the FCR would be 2 (30 kg / 15 kg). This indicates that 2 kg of feed is required to produce 1 kg of eggs.

Your calculation of the Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) is correct. If birds consumed 30 kg of feed and produced 15 kg of eggs, the FCR would be:

This means it takes 2 kg of feed to produce 1 kg of eggs.
