This technical disclosure describes improvements that would be readily apparent to a Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art (PHOSITA) when considered in combination with the foundational architecture disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,856,969.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent disclosed solidified fermented animal feed compositions, but these compositions had limitations in terms of shelf life, nutritional value, and production efficiency. The present invention addresses these limitations by introducing new components and processes that improve the overall quality and usability of the solidified fermented animal feed.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The new claims introduce novel and non-obvious improvements over the original patent, including the use of a temperature control unit, a thickening agent, and an antimicrobial agent. These improvements provide enhanced shelf life, improved nutritional value, and increased efficiency in production, which were not addressed by the original patent.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the invention may include different sources of calcium, various thickening agents, and different antimicrobial agents. The invention may also be adapted for use with different types of dairy products or dairy byproducts, and may be modified to produce solidified fermented animal feed with different nutritional profiles.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The invention has significant commercial potential in the animal feed industry, particularly in the dairy and livestock sectors. The improved shelf life, nutritional value, and production efficiency of the solidified fermented animal feed make it an attractive option for farmers and animal feed manufacturers. The invention may also have applications in other industries, such as pet food and aquaculture.
