AI Technical Summary
Existing animal bedding materials like açaí seeds are not recommended due to high starch content, which leads to fermentation and sugar production, feeding pathogenic agents, and high tannin content, making decomposition difficult, thus failing to provide a suitable environment for confined animals.
A method is developed to process açaí seeds by removing external dirt, grinding, cooking, filtration, and drying to achieve a moisture content of 12-14%, transforming them into suitable bedding for animal confinement.
The processed açaí seeds effectively absorb large volumes of animal waste, maintaining a dry environment and preventing pathogenic growth, ensuring animal welfare and hygiene.
