The framework for animal food is commonly referred to as "animal nutrition." This framework encompasses the study of the dietary needs of animals, including the formulation of balanced diets that provide essential nutrients such as proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. It also involves the evaluation of feed ingredients and the development of feeding strategies to optimize animal health and productivity.
