Abstract
The present technology disclosed herein relates to animal feed compositions suitable for feeding monogastric animals comprising a high amount of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) with improved nutrition quality, in particular DDGS with a reduced fiber content for a better availability and digestibility of the amino acids in the DDGS. Furthermore, animal feed compositions according to the present disclosure shows an excellent metabolizable energy (TME) value and energy associated with the carbohydrates, and are in particular useful for feeding poultry, in particular broilers directly after birth.
Claims16
An animal feed composition suitable for feeding monogastric animals, in particular for poultries like broilers, comprising 5.0 to 15.0, preferably 10.0 weight percent of a distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), wherein said DDGS has:
- (a) a crude fiber content less than 5.0 weight percent,
- (b) a NDF content of less than 30.0 weight percent, and
- (c) a ADF content of less than 10 weight percent.
9-26. (canceled)
A monogastric animal feed comprising at least 10 percent DDGS on a dry weight basis, wherein said DDGS is generated as a by-product in a fermentation process comprising the step of subjecting the fermented mash after the fermentation to an enzyme composition comprising an enzyme or a mixture of enzymes capable of degrading one or more fermented mash components.
