<p>Through the colour codes assigned to individual nutrients PC-Horse allows you to keep track of the origin of the values listed in your feeds. Through the colour codes you will get an additional tool for your quality control of the feed which you give your horses.&nbsp; The feed tables in PC-Horse has 3 coloumns where we for each nutrient give - the <em>name,</em> the <em>value</em> and the <em>unit</em>.</p>
<hr />
<p><strong>Colour coding of the nutrient NAME.</strong></p>
<p>A <strong>white</strong> background signifies that the nutrient value is imported by means of a datafile from your feed laboratory or is a feed originating from your national guaranty feed list. Such values are listed as analysed or as provided by the feed producer, and can therefore not be changed by the user.</p>
<p><img alt="44-feedcolor3" src="images-joomla/stories/44-images/44-feedcolor3.png" height="449" width="550" /></p>
<p>A <strong>grey</strong> background signifies that the nutrient value is provided from a template feed, or entered by the PC-Horse user. You may change such values at any time, provided that you have a more "correct" value. Doubleclick the value field - give your new value - and move to the next nutrient in the table. You may change the nutrient as many times as you wish. The change is available in ration planning when you have saved the feed. (You may reedit the values at any time).</p>
<hr />
<p><strong><strong>Colour coding of the nutrient VALUE.</strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>GREEN or YELLOW?</strong> - A <strong>green value</strong> originates from a laboratory datafile or from a guaranty feed. A <strong>yellow value</strong> is a recommended value from a template feed provided by PC-Horse when you created a feed of your own, or imported a feed as an xml-file (from a laboratory).</p>
<p>Nutrients with <em>white background and a green value are the most reliable.</em> They contain exact numbers from an analysis of your own roughage. Concentrates and vitamin- and mineral mixtures with this coulour coding are equally reliable, as they are given by feed producers collaborating with PC-Horse, or originate from official feed tables.</p>
<p><em>Nutrients with <em>white background and a yellow value</em></em> are taken from template feeds which you have selected, or which were included when you imported a feed analysis file. These values may be changed. Template feed data will never be 100% representative for your own roughage, since wether, soil and harvest conditions and botanical composition will always vary. However, since template feeds are taken from official feed tables, they will in most sitiuations be more reliable than values you have entered yourself from your own sources. In addition, the template feeds gives "a best estimate" for all the minerals and vitamins which are not analysed routinely in roughages.</p>
<p>NOTE! A value of 0 with yellow or green mark means that the amount of this nutrient is zero (0) in the feed.</p>

<p><strong>Värt att notera när det gäller Dina egna inlagda värden!</strong></p>
<p><strong>RÖTT</strong> - När Du ändrat ett värde (och sparat fodret) så byter bakgrunden färg till <strong>rött</strong>.<br />Då vet Du att detta är ett värde som Du själv har ansvaret för. Tänk på att det finns risk att göra fel. Du kanske läser på säcken där värden angivits i %. Du kanske har ett importfoder där proteinet är råprotein och inte smältbart protein (det som hästen kan tillgodogöra sig). Du kanske har fått höra att vissa "naturliga" tillsatser i fodret ska ha magiska egenskaper på vissa näringsämnen så att du ska skriva upp värdet för detta.</p>
<p>Samma sak händer när Du väljer att skapa ett eget foder utan att använda mallfoder. Då öppnar sig det nya fodret med alla värden i <strong>rött</strong> och med 0-värden. Och det är ju logiskt eftersom det är Du som har tagit beslutet att starta ditt foder utan värden. Dessa kan du sedan ändra som du önskar.</p>
<p><strong>Byta namn på fodret</strong> - kan du göra själv i namnfältet.</p>

<p>Den <strong>blå</strong> färgen visar bara att det är det värde som är markerat för tillfället.</p>
