Wood Sugar Molasses as a Feedstuff for Chicks

Wood Sugar Molasses for Dairy Cattle

Comparative feeding value of wood sugar concentrate and cane molasses for feedlot cattle.

Two feedlot cattle growth performance trials and a metabolism trial were conducted to evaluate the feeding value of cane molasses (CM) compared with wood sugar concentrate (WSC). The CM contained (as-fed basis) 73% DM, 8.6% ash, 48% total sugars, and 79.5 degrees Brix. The WSC contained (as-fed basis) 61% DM, 12.2% ash, 38.9% total sugars, and 29% lignosulfonate. When supplemented at 4% of diet...

Molasses and Yeast From Wood

One way to use the timber resources of our country more efficiently is to convert the refuse from logging and manufacturing operations into food. Research at the Forest Products Laboratory therefore is aimed in part at the conversion of wood to sugar solutions, which have been tested as livestock feed by several agricultural experiment stations. The investigations indicate that w^ood wastes can...
