Zusammenfassung:Process for mixing a food product for farm animals comprising a step of mixing a food product and two steps of detecting a first and a sequence of electromagnetic spectra reflected by the food product, leading to the acquisition of corresponding sets of detected data. The process also comprises a first calculation step of a plurality of principal components (PCi) by means of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the first set of detected data and a step of selecting a first principal component (PCI). The process also comprises a second step of calculating a second modified data set, comprising a plurality of first principal component values (PC1n), by means of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the second set of detected data, and a third step of calculating the standard deviation (PCldev) and a confidence interval (I) of the first principal component values (PC1n) on the basis of said standard deviation (PCldev).The process finally comprises a step of comparing the first principal component values (PC1n) with the confidence interval (I) and a step of stopping the mixing on the basis of such comparison.
