Util ity 44.00-49.00, Canner and Low Cutter 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.
