Title	Dehydrated meadow grass flour
Autoriai	prof. dr. E. Šarauskis, R. Sinkevičius, D. Sinkevičius, J. Sinkevičius, assoc. prof. dr. A. Sakalauskas, prof. dr. K. Romaneckas
Patent No.	LT 6480 B
Patent date of publication	11-12-2017
Registered	State Patent Bureau of the Republic of Lithuania
Patent Owner	Aleksandras Stulginskis University
The invention belongs to the field of agriculture dealing with the quality of feed, transportation, storage and feeding problems, since the meadow grass is dehydrated at a relatively low (up to 55 °C) temperature, and therefore the quality of its flour (especially carotene content) remains intact for a long time. During drying, the grass chops moisture is reduced from 70-80 to 12-14 %. The dried grass chops are grinded. Flour can be packed in bags. To increase the density of grass, granulate the flour. The density of granulated grass flour is up to 3 times bigger, and its volume is even smaller than non-granulated, making it easier and cheaper to transport, store and use it in automatic animal feed lines.
