Energy Value of
Wet Distillers Grain Relative to Corn
____________________________________________________
Including wet distillers grain plus
solubles (WDGS) in cattle diets increases final body weight at slaughter
without creating any differences in the characteristics of the carcass. WDGS
can be used in finishing diets, with optimum performance occuring at 30 to
40% dietary inclusion. The following link describes the research leading to
these results, and estimates the energy value of wet distillers grain
compared to corn grain.
