Distillers grains with solubles (DDGS), the major byproduct of ethanol production, is a good protein and energy feed for cattle. The DDGS can be fed wet or dried with animal performance usually similar when fed as wet or dried products; however, some research results favored the wet products. Cattle diets can contain DDGS as replacements for portions of both concentrates and forages, although D...

Distillers grains with solubles (DGS) is the major coproduct of ethanol production, usually made from corn, which is fed to dairy cattle. It is a good protein (crude protein, CP) source (>30% CP) high in ruminally undegradable protein (approximately 55% of CP) and is a good energy source (net energy for lactation of approximately 2.25 Mcal/kg of dry matter). The intermediate fat concentration (...

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 ...

Two experiments using calves fed 173 d from November to May (WINTER) and yearlings fed 145 d from May to September (SUMMER), were conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding a high inclusion level of both wet distillers grains plus soluble (WDGS) and wheat straw or a corn control diet (CON) on ADG, F:G, manure N, and N losses. In each experiment, 128 steers (WINTER: 311 ± 10 kg, SUMMER: 365 ± ...

Sugar cane molasses has proved cohesive and excellent performance on soil aggregates (fine particles). However, the microstructure of consolidated by is not yet subjected to research. The analysis results sample without (0%) samples at 8%, 12%, 16% show that acts structure clayey fine developing its airy matrix type (sample a qualified type, more solid. Consolidated molasses). We also observe p...

The global focus continues with respect to increasing agricultural productivity, such as in paddy soils using inorganic fertilizers. Such practices could adversely affect the environment by deteriorating and greenhouse gas emissions. aim of this study was assess effect biochar pellet blended condensed molasses soluble (CMS) on rice soil quality, methane (CH4) emissions a condition for healthy e...

Cereal Chem. 90(1):70–79 Wider exploration of ethanol coproduct uses is necessary as the ethanol industry continues to face challenges. Currently, process streams such as thin stillage and condensed distillers solubles (CDS) are processed into distillers dried grains with solubles and used as animal feeds, but other higher value opportunities may exist. The objective of this study was to identi...
