Can I directly substitute wet corn gluten feed for wet distillers grains?
Feedlot rations: Depending on the levels you are feeding and the moisture, you may be able to substitute wet distillers grains for wet corn gluten pound for pound as fed, however due to the variation in moisture of both products, it is advisable to substitute on a dry matter basis. Distillers grains have about 50% more protein on a dry matter basis than corn gluten feed, so only about 2/3 as much dry matter needs to be fed to get the same protein level.
