Effects of feeding a high-fiber byproduct feedstuff as a substitute for barley grain in the diets of dairy cows in early lactation
DownloadSpring 2012
The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of using wheat dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS) to replace barley grain in the diet on dry matter intake (DMI), milk production and rumen fermentation of early lactation dairy cows. Sixty-one Holstein cows including thirteen...

Effects of supplemented NSP-degrading enzymes on nutrient digestibility of diets containing co-products fed to grower pigs
DownloadSpring 2012
Corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) and wheat millrun are co-products from the ethanol and dry milling industries characterized by high non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) content that limit nutrient digestibility of co-products, which could be improved by supplementation of...

Evaluation of dried distillers grains with solubles as a partial replacement of barley silage or barley grain in diets for lactating dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2010
Feeding value of dried distillers grains with soluble (DDGS) as an energy source for lactating dairy cows was evaluated in two studies. A diet in which barley grain was replaced by DDGS at 20% of dietary dry matter (DM) did not affect milk yield but tended to increase rumen pH compared with the...

Nutritional Characterization of Wheat Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles in Grower-Finisher Pigs
DownloadFall 2011
Co-product feedstuffs, if properly characterized nutritionally, are an important component to maintain the feed competitiveness of the pork industry. Hence, nutrient digestibility of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) was measured using grower-finisher pigs. In Exp. 1, two methods were...
