Most numerous items came up in vc and animal feed came up (pinecones are most numerous) My idea would be for a hay bale item, crafted from grass to put in feeding troughs/sheds. The animals would instead take a bite from the bale and impact durability of it until eaten, or similar. The non-grass foods, an animal feed 'block' crafted from the usual food animals can eat to condense items.
Alternatively (Yoinking some of Serity's ideas, full credit to their brain) something to store the feeds digitally like a silo, which spits items back out when needed. Or a virtual counter like chalk/soaps have.
Somewhat similar could apply to earthworms, like a bait jar with 50 uses/bait jar item crafted with worms. (No more carrying 80 earthworms in my pants on accident, maybe)

Oh no, looks like I might die as I have lived. In the wrong place at the wrong time
