Nutritional value of wheat DDGS for ruminants and pigs

Johan De Boever, ILVO,Animal Sciences, Belgium

The nutritive value of eight batches of DDGS wheat were evaluated by means of chemical analysis and in-vivo trials. The nett energy value and protein value for ruminants was determined by digestion trials with sheep and by rumen and intestinal incubations with dairy cows. The energy value and ileal amino acid digestibility was determined with pigs.. The potential of laboratory parameters to predict the in-vivo nutritive value of DDGS was examined.
