67
In Summary … Ethanol industry has major influence on overall global agricultural economy USA exports of DDGS are rapidly increasing as end users better understand the use of DDGS in their feeding operations Ethanol production process is not an exact science, there will be variability Variability can (should) be managed and evaluated Quality control measures can be implemented to ensure a reliable supply of quality DDGS Need industry standardized and quick testing of DDGS Match your needs with DDGS quality
68
In Summary … DGS low in starch –Reduces potential of acidosis Highly digestible fibre (40-45% NDF) and yeast cells (3-5%) –Stimulate rumen fibre digestion –Compliment high starch maize diets When fed at limited levels (<40%) –Energy content 120-130% of maize Reasonable source of undegradable protein (UDP) source –UDP quality and bioavailability could be a problem Feedlot cattle find DDGS very palatable
