Bran
Ex: Corn, rice, wheat
Outer coarse coat of grain separated during processing (pericarp).
Flour
Ex: Rye, wheat
Soft, finely ground and bolted meal from the milling of cereal grains and other seeds. Consists primarily of gluten & starch of the endosperm.
Germ Meal
Ex: Corn, wheat
Ground germ of the seed (embryo).
Gluten
Ex: Corn, sorghum
Substance remaining after extraction of starch and germ in the manufacture of starch and syrup.
Grain Screenings
Ex: All grains
Small imperfect grains, weed seeds, & other foreign material of value as a feed that is separated through the cleaning of grain with a screen.
Groats
Ex: Oat, rice
Fed to horses. Grain from which the hulls have been removed.
Hominy Feed
Ex: Corn
A mixture of corn bran, corn germ, and some of the starchy portion, produced in the manufacture of pearl ____, ____ grits, and table meal.
Hulls
Ex: Oat, rice
Outer covering of grain.
Malt Sprouts
Ex: Barley
The rootlets and sprouts, along with some of the malt hulls, obtained from malted barley.
Meal, Oat
Ex: Oat
Rolled oat groats.
Middlings
Ex: Rye, wheat
A by-product of the flour milling industry, consisting of brain, shorts, germ, flour, and some of the offal from the "tail of the mill".
Mill Run
Ex: Rye, wheat, grain, sorghum, oat, rice
State in which a material comes from the mill, usually ungraded and having no definite specifications. It consists of bran, shorts, germ, flour, and the offal from the "tail of the mill".
Polishings
Ex: Rice
By-product of rice, consisting of a fine residue that accumulates as rice kernels are polished.
Red Dog
Ex: Wheat
By-product of milling wheat for flour. Consists of the offal from the "tail of the mill", along with fine particles of wheat bran, wheat germ, and wheat flour.
Shorts
Ex: Wheat
A by-product of flour milling consisting of a mixture of small particles of bran, germ, flour, and the offal from the "tail of the mill".

Examples of implants and how they are used
Compudose, Finoplex, Ralgro, Synovex.
Increases ADG to finish steers and heifer for good meat.
What is MGA? Why is it used?
Melengesterol Acetate.
Stops cow's cyclinc so she focuses on eating.

Food = Yay!
Sex = No!
% NFE =
100% - (%Moisture + %EE + %Ash + %CP + %CF)
Lignin
The indigestible plant fiber. It can be eaten, just not digested by all animals.
NE =
GE - (FE + UE + GasE + HI)
DE =
GE - FE
ME =
GE - (FE + UE + GasE)
Roughage
A feed that is LOW in ENERGY, but HIGH in FIBER.
Concentrate
A feed that is HIGH in ENERGY, but LOW in FIBER.
Fodder
The entire above the ground part of a plant.
Stover
The entire above the ground part of a plant with the grain removed.
Calorie
Amount of energy as heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. [1 cal = 4.184 Joules]
Examples of antibiotics added to feed
Bacitracin, Bacitracion Zinc, Erythromycin, Chlortetracycline, Monensin, Oxytetracycline, Lasalocid
Examples of buffers added to feed
Sodium bicarbonate (#1 in CA), Magnesium oxide, Sodium bentonite, Sodium sesquicarbonate, Limestone
Reasons to process grain
$$, alter particle size, change moisture/density of feed, > nutrient availability and digestibility, detoxify undesirable ingredients, reduce storage and transportation costs, lessens molds, enhances rumen by-pass
Reasons to process roughage
Forced feeding of entire plant (including stem).
May be disadvantage to higher producing animals, but it is profitable for average animals in a farm.
Ralgro
Zeranol is an anabolic agent (produce more meat).
Not a hormone.
Enhances retention of N (protein deposition).
Increases ADG and FE.
Why should forages not be finely ground when fed to lactating dairy cows?
Because they need more fiber to produce the more butterfat.
Ensiling
The process of making silage.
Needs 2-3 weeks to ferment anaerobically.
Haylage
45-55% water content usually is stored in silo in order to keep moisture content.
Silage
65-75% water content
Legume
A type of plant that traditionally prosses higher protein content(why- because of the ability to fix atmosphere nitrogen through the symbiotic relationship with the bacteria found in its nodule)
Hay
Dry roughage with 15% water content
Feed additives that decrease gas formation
What are Ionophores?
What do probiotics do?
Increase the microflora in the animals digestive system.
Soilage
High in moisture (65 70%). Also known as stover, fodder, and greenchop.
Pericarp
The process of removing the outer coarse coat.
What are implants used for?
They are like steroids for cows. Their main purpose is to promote growth.
Why do we use Antibiotics?
They are preventatives and also work to increase feed efficiency, which will intern increase average daily gain.
Why are buffers used?
To neutralize the pH levels in the stomach.
