Abstract
WHEAT is used extensively around the world as a major source of food for both animals and humans. Large quantities of wheat by-products are made available each year from the flour milling industry. These ingredients represent large potential sources of nutrients for the feeding of livestock and man. In general the feeding value of wheat by-products has been underestimated for animals and almost completely ignored for human use.Farrell et al. (1967) and Waggle et al. (1967) have reported extensive chemical analysis of by-products from 9 different wheat samples grown in various parts of the United States. In the present study these same millfeed fractions have been assayed for metabolizable energy and dry matter, and protein quality.MATERIALS AND METHODSWheat bran, shorts, red dog and germ from the 9 wheat samples used by Farrell et al. (1967) and processed by them as described in their report, were assayed for .
