Grains
A
A. CORN B. SORGHUM C. OATS AS GRAIN D. BARLEY E. WHEAT F. RYE GRAIN G. RICE BRAN
2
Q
- Most extensively produced feed grain
- Most widely used energy feed
- Low in calcium but fair in phosphorus content
- Deficient in cyanocobalamin. low in riboflavin and pantothenic acid
- Low in lysine, methionine and tryptophan
- Must be supplemented with protein for most livestock
A
CORN
3
Q
- Produced in semi-arid areas where corn does not grow
- Slightly higher protein content than in corn
- Low carotene
- Drought resistant
- Grain sorghum should be rolled or ground for most classes of livestock
A
SORPGHUM
4
Q
- Has higher crude protein than in corn
- Has slightly higher calcium and phosphorus
- Use as rations for horses, young growing stock, show stock and breeding animals
A
OATS AS GRAIN
5
Q
- “Beer Grain”
- Used for fattening animals
A
BARLEY
6
Q
2 Kinds of Wheat
A
- AS GRAIN
2. AS BRAN
7
Q
- Not usually use on animals due to its high demand for human consumption
- Expensive
- Has higher protein than corn
- Due to the high solubility of its starch, feeding wheat to cattle is conducive to acidosis
A
AS GRAIN
8
Q
- The seed coat of the wheat that is removed during the process of making wheat flour
- Used for livestock as:
a. Primary
1. Source of bulk
2. Mild laxative
3. Source of phosphorus
b. Secondary
1. Source of Energy
2. Source of Protein
A
AS BRAN
9
Q
- Less palatable in comparison to other grains
- Can be contaminated with ergot which is toxic
A
RYE GRAIN
10
Q
Comes from the fungus that grows once grain goes rancid
A
ERGOT
11
Q
- Comparable to wheat in feeding value but less protein
- Seed coat and germ that is removed from rice
A
RICE BRAN
12
Q
Protein Meal (Animal Source)
A
A. DRIED SKIMMED MILK B. MEAT MEAL C. MEAT AND BONE MEAL D. FISH MEAL E. FEATHER MEAL F. BLOOD MEAL
13
Q
- Deffated, dehydrated cow’s milk
- Contains around 34% protein
- Used in early weaning diets for calves and pigs
A
DRIED SKIMMED MILK
14
Q
- Meat that is cooked in steam jacketed kettles on its own fat
- Used as feed for swine and poultry
A
MEAT MEAL
15
Q
- Meat scraps and bone
- Has higher calcium and phosphorus than protein
- Production of meat and bone meal has been discouraged due to the incidence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy or mad cow disease
A
MEAT AND BONE MEAL
16
Q
In humans, this is known as Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease
A
MAD COW DISEASE
17
Q
- Consist of fish and fish by-products
- Protein content is usually 60% and is usually good quality
- Has high calcium and phosphorus
A
FISH MEAL
18
Q
- Extremely high in protein at over 80%
- It is 75% digestible if processed properly
- Amino acid balance is not too desirable to single-stomach animals
A
FEATHER MEAL
