This dairyman just
took a delivery of
brewers wet grain from the Miracle Feeds division of Furst-McNess.
When he put a sharp pencil to it, he found that each ton of Miracle
brewers wet grains could replace 230 pounds of 48 percent soybean
meal (@ $250/ton) and 195 pounds of shelled com (@ $9O/ton) mak
ing brewers wet grain worth over $35.00/ton in his ration. With the
average price of brewers wet grains running at approximately
$25.00-$27.00/ton (depending on distance from the brewery) this
dairyman has realized that brewers wet grains are an excellent buy
versus soybean meal and shelled com.
And, the dairyman found Miracle brewers wet grain also enhanced
his cows' production since it is an excellent source of bypass protein
and helps make up for some poor quality forage he is forced to feed
this year. It also improved the palatability of his total ration.
Brewers wet grains also contain 9 percent fat making it an excellent
source for this important nutrient.
Say you're already feeding brewers grains? Maybe you should con
sider switching to Miracle, where you can get free computerized
ration balancing plus forage testing to get the most out of your feed
ing program.
Just call toll-free 800-888-0230.
