Description
What it is. By-product of barley processed in distilleries, obtained after fermentation and alcohol extraction, delivered in moist (non-dried) form. It is listed in the Feed Materials Catalogue (Regulation 68/2013) under the cereal grains chapter, entry 1.1.16. Composition varies with the batch and the distillation process used.
What it is for. This type of by-product is generally used as a source of protein and fibre in ruminant feeding, and sometimes for other species depending on formulation constraints. It would generally be included as a partial substitute for other protein or energy sources in the ration, subject to its moisture content. Being a moist by-product, it is generally intended for rapid use or for local, short-circuit supply given its limited keeping stability.
Points to watch. No official description is available for this entry; composition and nutritional value should be verified case by case with the supplier. Due to high moisture content, the product is sensitive to microbial spoilage and requires rapid use or appropriate storage conditions. Batch-to-batch variability (barley origin, distillation process) should be taken into account in formulation.
