Use of Dried Distiller’s Grains with Solubles for Swine Diets

چکیده
Two experiments were conducted to determine the energy value of DDGS. In Experiment 1, 360 pigs (each initially 38.5 lb) were used in a 22 d growth assay. Treatments consisted of five corn-soybean meal-based diets with added wheat bran or soy oil to provide five different energy densities ranging from 1,390 to 1,604 Kcal/lb ME. The objective was to use responses to the wide range of energy densities to calculate an energy value for two sources of DDGS.

Fuel ethanol production is one of the fastest growing segments in American agriculture. Currently, there are 83 ethanol plants in production, with an additional 16 ethanol plants under construction. These ethanol plants have production capacity of 4.3 billion gallons of ethanol per year (Renewable Fuels Association, December, 2004). Approximately 40% of fuel ethanol is produced by wet-mills, an...
متن کاملUse of Minnesota-south Dakota Regional Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles in Swine Diets
The ethanol industry has experienced tremendous growth during the past decade. Ethanol production occurs as a result of fermentation of the soluble carbohydrate fraction of grain (starch). As a result, significant quantities of distillers dried grains (with or without solubles) is produced as a by-product of the ethanol industry. It is expected that the quantity of distillers dried grains with ...

Distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) is produced from the fuel ethanol industry and is available for inclusion in diets fed to swine. During recent years, several research projects have been completed to investigate the feeding value of DDGS. Crude nutrient concentrations, energy and nutrient digestibility values, and effects of including DDGS in diets fed to different categories of swi...

and Implications An experiment was conducted with 48 laying hens to determine the effects of high dietary contents of corn dried distiller’s grains with solubles (DDGS) on nitrogen and dry matter manure excretion as well as egg production and egg quality. Diets containing 0, 23, 46, and 69% corn DDGS were fed to laying hens for 8 weeks after an initial 4-weeklong transition period during which ...
