Mr. Lepper would be ready to be involved in providing raw materials to make pellets in Fiji. He also has available a hammer mill for grinding finely ingredients of shrimp feed - 5/32 inches.

Discussions about equipment:

Die: 2m/m × 33m/m at NZ$ 2,320 F.O.B.¹ to produce pelleted feeds (0.5 mt per hour).

As ingredients list is quite long, it is looked into the possibility to incorporate a rich mix plus ingredients available on the spot (at the factory).

Requirement of the farm around 90 mt per year in 1989 with a 11 mt peak for a month.

Review of feed mills in Suva which could give the best offer on:

• A supervision point of view
• An economical point of view
• Location: Lautoka - Suva: 200 km away.

We look into the possibility of producing shrimp feed throughout:

Temptation Chicken Ltd., Suva.

Equipment:

1. 60 HP Simon pellet machine with retention time in conditioner steam injection 80 to 85°C. Boiler a 7.025 kg per cm² of pressure adding up to 20 kg water at mixer and molasses inclusion.

2. Comparison of imports of shrimp feed from different places:

   • Freight cost of from New Zealand to Fiji:
     NZ$ 3,000 per mt.

In 1986. P.C.L was proposing 85 cents per kg F.O.B Auckland or 90 cents per kg C.I.F Lautoka for shrimp feed. A new quotation is requested from P.C.L in order to prepare possible agreement for 1989 shrimp production campaign, but it is requested to look into:

1. Full formulae made in New Zealand.

2. Rich mix imported and mixed with other ingredients, readily prepared in Fiji whether near Lautoka or Suva (F$ 120 to 130 land freight per mt).

   All inclusion drawn from these informations will be consigned in the final report.
