DDGS : Dried Distiller Grains with Solubles
Increasing the Feeding Value of DDGS through the Use of Multi-Enzymes.
Dried Distiller Grains with Solubles (DDGS) is a grain protein source and energy in swine diets. How do we maximize its utilization?
Dried distillers grains with solubles or DDGS, a by product of the ethanol industry has been gaining much attention as both an energy and protein source in swine dicts. It has been reported that this raw material is relatively high in protein, fiber and fat. However its rather low digestibility and nutrient variability prevents its maximum usage in swine diets. In fact several research reports have shown different maximum inclusion rate recommendations which range from 7.5% to 30% in growing and finishing pigs. Thus, increasing the nutrient digestibility of DDGS will indeed improve its usage in conventional swine diets.
