What is claimed is: 1. A system for generating an animal feed formulation for an animal based on environmental nutrient inputs, comprising: a central processing unit coupled to a memory, the central processing unit running one or more programs, at least one of the programs comprising, (i) a simulator engine configured to generate a set of animal requirements in view of environmental nutrients received by the animal based on characteristics of the animal wherein the environmental nutrients comprise one or more nutrients that are received and/or utilized by the animal that are not fed to the animal; and (ii) a formulator engine configured to receive the set of animal requirements and generate an optimized animal feed formulation from the animal requirements; wherein said animal feed formulation is communicated to a user interface. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the simulator engine is further configured to project the environmental nutrients received by an animal based on a listing of environmental ingredients available to the animal and the characteristics of the animal. 3. The system of claim 1, further including an enterprise supervisor engine configured to generate an optimized value for at least one variable input that is varied by the system to generate a value, the variable input having an effect on the environmental nutrients received by the animal. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein generating an optimized value for the at least one variable input includes providing a projected effect of a modification to the at least one variable input. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the simulator engine is further configured to generate a projected effect of consumption of the environmental nutrients by the animal. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the projected effect is the effect of a waste stream generated by the animal on the environmental nutrients. 7. The system of claim 5, further including an enterprise supervisor engine configured to generate an optimized value for at least one variable input that is varied by the system to generate a value, the optimized value being configured to minimize a detrimental effect of the environmental nutrients received by an animal. 8. The system of claim 1, further including an environmental ingredient performance simulator configured to generate an environmental ingredient performance profile based upon consumption of environmental ingredients and the inputs provided to the environment. 9. A method for generating an animal feed formulation for an animal based on environmental nutrient inputs, the method comprising: receiving a listing of environmental nutrient inputs wherein the environmental nutrient inputs comprise one or more nutrients that are received and/or utilized by the animal that are not fed to the animal; generating a projection of consumption of the environmental nutrient inputs by the animal; determining a set of animal nutritional requirements for the animal in view of the consumption of the environmental nutrient inputs by the animal based on the characteristics of the animal; generating an optimized animal feed formulation based on the animal nutritional requirements; and communicating the animal feed formulation to a user interface; wherein the method is implemented with one or more processors. 10. The method of claim 9, further including generating an optimized value for at least one variable input that is varied in the method to generate a value, the variable input having an effect on the environmental nutrient inputs received by the animal. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein generating an optimized value for the at least one variable input includes providing a projected effect of a modification to the at least one variable input. 12. The method of claim 9, further including generating a projected effect of the consumption of the environmental nutrient inputs by the animal. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the projected effect is the effect of a waste stream generated by the animal on the environmental nutrient inputs. 14. The method of claim 12, further including generating an optimized value for at least one variable input, the optimized value being configured to minimize a detrimental effect of the environmental nutrient inputs received by an animal. 15. The method of claim 9, further including generating an environmental ingredient performance profile based upon the consumption of environmental ingredients and inputs provided to the environment. 16. A system for generating an animal feed formulation for an animal, comprising: a central processing unit coupled to a memory, the central processing unit running one or more programs, at least one of the programs comprising, (i) a simulator engine configured to receive a plurality of animal information inputs and generate animal requirements based on the animal information inputs, the animal information inputs including a listing of environmental ingredients comprising environmental nutrients that are available to the animal, wherein at least one of the animal information inputs is designated as a variable input that is varied by the system to generate a value and wherein the environmental ingredients comprise one or more nutrients that are received and/or utilized by the animal that are not fed to the animal; (ii) a formulator engine, the formulator engine configured to receive a plurality of animal feed ingredient inputs and generate an animal feed formulation composed of the animal feed ingredients based on the animal requirements and projected consumption of the environmental ingredients by the animal; and (iii) an enterprise supervisor engine configured to optimize the animal feed formulation according to at least one optimization criteria, and further configured to generate an optimized value for the at least one variable input based on the at least one optimization criteria; wherein the animal feed formulation is communicated to a user interface. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the simulator engine is further configured to generate a projection of environmental nutrients received by an animal based on a listing of environmental ingredients available to the animal and characteristics of the animal. 18. The system of claim 16, wherein the enterprise supervisor engine is further configured to generate an optimized value for at least one variable input, the variable input having an effect on environmental nutrients received by an animal. 19. The system of claim 18, wherein generating an optimized value for the at least one variable input includes providing a projected effect of a modification to the at least one variable input. 20. The system of claim 16, wherein the simulator engine is further configured to generate a projected effect of the consumption of the environmental ingredients by the animal. 21. The system of claim 20, wherein the projected effect is the effect of a waste stream generated by the animal on the environmental ingredients. 22. The system of claim 20, wherein the enterprise supervisor engine is further configured to generate an optimized value for at least one variable input, the optimized value being configured to minimize a detrimental effect of environmental nutrients received by an animal. 23. The system of claim 16, wherein the simulator engine includes an environmental ingredient performance simulator configured to generate an environmental ingredient performance profile based upon the consumption of the environmental ingredients and inputs provided to the environment.
