A goat farmer wants to produce 200 kg of goat meat in one year. Each kilogram of weight gain requires feed according to the feed‑conversion ratio (FCR). The farmer can buy two feeds: • Feed P: costs ₦500 per kg, protein 20 %, FCR = 4.5 kg feed per kg gain. • Feed Q: costs ₦400 per kg, protein 15 %, FCR = 5.5 kg feed per kg gain. The average protein content of the total feed used must be at least 18 %. Determine the minimum‑cost combination of Feed P and Feed Q (in whole kilograms) that meets the meat‑production target and the protein requirement, and state the total feed cost (in Naira).
