brewer's grains

    0.01 sec.
brewer's grains
the residue of the cereal grains after most of the starch has been fermented away. It is a highly palatable and nutritious feed much sought after for dairy cows because of its high protein content. It may be fed dried or wet, but wet grains must be fed fresh. If allowed to ferment it may develop sufficient lactic acid to cause lactic acidosis. Clinical signs are dehydration, rumen stasis, smelly diarrhea.
