To provide even more digestible energy in the form starch than whole corn
Dried distillers grain
Why do we feed dried distillers grain?
To provide a cheap source of oil, RUP protein, and fiber which ruminants can utilize for energy
Flaxseed
Why would we feed flaxseed?
To provide a source of fat - usually not fed unless it’s made into an oil
Farro
Lupine
Why would you feed lupine?
To provide a source of fat - usually not fed unless it’s made into an oil and cannot be fed in large quantities because it is bitter
