The manufacturer sells this recipe as Goodbowl Harvest Chicken & Brown Rice Dog Kibble.
Guaranteed analysis (as fed, per manufacturer): Crude Protein (min) 25%, Crude Fat (min) 12%, Crude Fibre (max) 4.5%, Moisture (max) 10%, DHA (min) 0.02%, Calcium (min) 1.2%, Phosphorus (min) 1.0%, Taurine (min) 0.2%. Energy 3500 kcal me/kg (365 kcal me/cup). AAFCO: Open Farm Goodbowl Harvest Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe Dog Food is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for All Life Stages except for growth of large size dogs (70 lbs or more as an adult) (per manufacturer).
Goodbowl is Open Farm's lower priced line and the label shows where the saving comes from: eight guaranteed lines against thirteen on Epic Blend, protein at 25 percent against 30, fat at 12 against 14.5, and no vitamin A or E figures published at all. It is still a complete all life stages diet with chicken as the single animal protein in the first six ingredients and brown rice second, which is a conventional and well tolerated panel. At 365 kcal a cup it is also the second lowest calorie dry food in the range, so portions run larger than on the Epic Blend or RawMix recipes. The honest comparison is against mid market kibble rather than against the rest of Open Farm's own range. Our tally withholds the protein points because 25 percent misses the 26 percent threshold by one point, which is a mechanical outcome rather than a judgement that the food is deficient; 25 percent clears the AAFCO adult maintenance minimum comfortably.

Questions about Open Farm Goodbowl Harvest Chicken & Brown Rice (All Life Stages, Dry)
How does Goodbowl differ from the rest of the Open Farm dry range?
It is the lower priced line. The label publishes eight guaranteed lines against thirteen on Epic Blend, protein and fat are lower at 25 and 12 percent, and no vitamin A or E figures are published. It still carries a full all life stages AAFCO statement.
What are the first ingredients?
As listed on the Open Farm product page, the first ingredients are humanely raised chicken, Non-GMO brown rice, Non-GMO pumpkin, flaxseed, coconut oil and Non-GMO carrots. Chicken is the only animal protein among them.
How much protein and fat does it have?
Open Farm publishes crude protein 25% and crude fat 12% as-fed minimums, with 3500 kcal ME/kg or 365 kcal ME per cup. These are the maker's published figures, not our measurements.
Why does it score lower than other Open Farm recipes here?
Our tally awards two points for protein at or above 26 percent, and this recipe publishes 25 percent, so it misses by one point. That is a mechanical outcome of the tally, not a finding that the food is deficient. 25 percent clears the AAFCO adult maintenance minimum.
Can large breed puppies eat it?
No, not according to the maker's own statement, which excludes growth of large size dogs at 70 lbs or more as an adult.
