Developed feed formulation software for academia and research.

Pindah delivered a feed formulation software for the Department of Animal Science at the University of Zimbabwe. The system allows lecturers, researchers, and students to simulate animal feed recipes based on nutritional requirements, ingredient availability, and cost optimization. It includes a database of raw materials, nutrient profiles, and algorithms for least-cost formulation. The solution digitized a previously manual, Excel-based process, enabling scalable research, teaching efficiency, and real-world application in livestock production. The department continues to use the system as both an academic tool and a research enabler.
