Advantages of Leiber® spent grains in feeding:
- Stabilise digestion
- Year-round availability
- Good ensiling ability
Applications:
The protein-rich and tasty feed is healthy, valuable and economical and is ideal for feeding cattle and pigs:
- Ideal in high-starch rations with an emphasis on corn silage
- For GMO-free feeding
- Saving on expensive protein feeds
- Partial replacement for coarse forage (e.g. if there is a shortage of feed due to drought)
- Better mixing of the ration due to the moistening effect
- Very good ensiling properties
Functionalities:
Spent grains are a high-quality brewery by-product obtained as a solid residue from malt during beer production. Spent grains are very tasty and thus improve the intake of forage. In addition, protein-rich spent grains provide a high proportion of rumen-stable proteins (UDP). The high protein supply in the small intestine can have a positive effect on the milk protein content.
Advantages in ruminant and pig feeding:
- Smaller selection on the feed table
- Improve forage intake
- Stabilise digestion
- Increase milk yield and fattening performance
- Positive effect on faecal consistency (also with grass-based rations)
