Maize gluten meal

1. Maize gluten meal

2. Corn gluten Corn gluten meal is obtained whenever maize is used for starch extraction Obtained as by product during wet milling process Corn gluten meal is protein rich containing about 65% crude protein Also used as energy and pigment for livestock species including fishes

3. Corn gluten Corn gluten should not be mistaken with corn gluten feed which contain 22% protein rather than 65% In USA and corn gluten meal is used as fertilizer and weed killer

9. As protein source, 8 to 15% of ration DM As an energy source, > 15% of ration DM May reduce acidosis because highly digestible fiber in place of starch Wt gains & feed efficiency of cattle fed wet distillers grains usually better than with corn Wt gains and feed efficiency of cattle fed dry distillers grains usually similar to corn At 15 to 25% of ration DM, wet distillers grains has it greatest value Protein and energy in distillers grains have value DM intake may be reduces when wet distillers grains fed @ > 30% of ration DM Probably feeding excess protein Feeding excess P P does not have value for finishing cattle fed corn Corn Distillers Grains for Finishing Cattle

10. Corn Distillers Grains for Cattle Fed Roughages Growing cattle – Cows – Calves Energy, protein and P have value Complements roughages Less starch – No negative associative effects Energy should be greater than corn Feed to supply supplemental needs for protein and energy
