Abstract
Description
Many factors influence the selection of grains to be used for livestock feeding such as price, production yields, nutrient content, animal requirements and management practices. Of these, alterations in the nutrient contents appears to be the most effective method of increasing all or specific nutrient concentrations in grains and the effects of grain mixtures depend upon the grain in question. Much emphasis in recent years has been placed on increasing specific nutrient densities within a feed grain.
